Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

These are from Mrs. Fields, but not THE Mrs. Fields
1 1/2 cups butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar firmly packed
1 cup white sugar
2 TBLS vanilla
1 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 lg can (29 oz) or 3 cups pumpkin
2 TBSLS pumpkin pie spice
1 TBLS cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
6 cups flour
2 tsps baking soda
Milk Chocolate chips (2 cups or 12 oz. bag)

Cream butter, sugars, vanilla and salt well. Scrape down sides of the bowl. Add eggs and pumpkin. Beat well until the mixture is fluffy. Add spices. Mix. Add flour, soda and chocolate chips. Blend until well incorporated, but do not over-mix. Use a small ice cream or cookie scoop to form 1 inch balls of dough, and them 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degree Fahrenheit for 12-16 min. Let rest for a minute or two and remove from tray to a cooling rack with a spatula. This makes a huge batch, so unless you have a large capacity mixer, you might want to cut the recipe in half.
