Pumpkin Spice Cookies
School started this week in Georgia, which means that fall is right around the corner. Yikes! How did summer slip by so fast?? Once the kids go back to school, I know it won’t be long until the pumpkin spice explosion hits the world.
Everybody goes crazy over pumpkin spice, and I can’t blame them. The cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg flavors make my taste buds rejoice. It is truly one of my favorite fall flavors.
In preparation for the pumpkin spice invasion of 2019, I’m upping my cookie game and making these AMAZING chewy pumpkin spice cookies.
These cookies are the perfect combination of pumpkin spices and have a secret ingredient to make them extra chewy! Did you know that you can add Karo® Corn Syrup to your favorite cookie recipe in place of sugar to make your cookies super chewy and delicious?
Karo® Corn Syrup has been in my cupboard for decades (it is a staple of southern cuisine, after all) but I really only thought it was used for pecan pie at Thanksgiving or as a sweet topping for pancakes. I never thought about using it in my everyday baking until a friend suggested it. Y’all, it is a game changer! Karo® Corn Syrup is the perfect ingredient that makes cookies chewier on the outside and still soft in the middle.
Now that you know my secret ingredient for these amazing chewy cookies, let’s get to baking!
