I decided to experiment with one of my favorite go-to holiday treats this past week by adding some organic pumpkin puree and spices and adjusting the recipe a bit.
Wow, they were amazing!!
To create my pumpkin spice chocolate no-bake cookies, I used Pacific Foods Organic Pumpkin Puree that is packaged in a Tetra Pak carton.
Why a carton?
Did you know that cartons use 1/3 of the packaging compared to cans, and are recyclable and re-closable? Tetra Pak cartons are made of 70% paper, a renewable resource, from selectively harvested, re-grown trees that are FSC-certified (Forest Stewardship Council), so you can feel good about your smart decision to help our planet!
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup Pacific Foods Organic Pumpkin Puree
- 2 cups sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 Tbsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp. cloves
- 3 cups oats
- 1 tsp. vanilla

How well do they stay in shape if not kept in fridge after the initial refrigeration? I was thinking of making a batch for my kid’s party but don’t think it can be kept in d fridge once it reaches his school.

They do get a little mushy. If I were taking them to school, I would use the regualar chocolate no bake cookies that I posted about here:

They hold their shape much better and are better for traveling! 😉 Good luck!
