Need a quick treat for unexpected guests, a get together or cookie exchange? These easy pumpkin spice chocolate chip cookies are your best bet!
I love baking during the holidays, especially when there’s pumpkin involved. One of my favorite treats is homemade pumpkin bread. I’ve got a recipe that I’ve been using for over 20 years, and it comes out delicious every single time. Another favorite I have is pumpkin spice chocolate chip cookies, which, I’ve never actually made before, until the other day. I am happy to report that they came out pretty amazing! They’re soft little cake-like nuggets of pumpkin chocolate deliciousness.
We usually have Thanksgiving at our house, but, this year my SIL wanted to have it at her place, which is totally fine with me. Honestly, after a solid 13 years years or so of hosting every major holiday, I’m kind of over it. This however, leads to a problem. A minor one, but still a problem. Since I’ve never really had to cart food anywhere, aside from the kitchen stove to the table, I didn’t have a clue as to what to use to transport these tasty morsels.
Thank goodness for these Rubbermaid food storage containers. I fell in love immediately with their Party Serving Kit, which can be used in more than 10 different ways- love that! The Party Serving Kit has two inserts, one for cupcakes, and the other fits mini cupcakes or deviled eggs. It also has an awesome base, which can hold a variety of items, like pies, brownies, bars, cakes, and yes, cookies! I also love the fact that it’s 100% BPA free.
And, since I found this Rubbermaid Party Platter, I figured, why not go ahead and bring some veggies and dip, too. You can never have enough of those, right?
Both of these food storage containers fit perfectly on the back seat of my car, so no need to worry about them being tossed about. Everything arrives safely, and all I need to do is take off the lids and it’s ready to be served. Everything looks festive, too. Rubbermaid’s smart, simple food storage solutions have certainly made my holiday life less complicated.
Packing up is easy as well. The leak-proof Twist & Seal™ inner container for holding the dip is super convenient, and I don’t have to worry about spills, which can be messy.
The lid is a snug fit, too, which means it isn’t going to pop off causing food to go flying if I take a corner too fast or if it gets dropped. The fact that it fits perfectly in my refrigerator is sheer bonus.
My cookies were a huge hit, which means they were all eaten, thankfully, because honestly, I didn’t trust myself not to eat all of them myself.
What’s your favorite holiday treat? Rubbermaid’s got food storage for that!
