10 Fall Date Ideas & the Best Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Anyone else feel like October is somehow one of the busiest months of the year? It’s my favorite month, so I try making the most of it each year! We cram in as much pumpkin flavored everything, apple picking, and time spent outside enjoying the colorful leaves. Somehow in the midst of all this, we are always on the go. So sometimes I need the reminder to slow down and intentionally set dates with my hubby. So after much thoughts, I’ve created 10 fall date night ideas for each of us to enjoy!

1. Visit a local pumpkin patch
2. Go apple picking
3. Enjoy hot apple cider or a hot pumpkin spice latte and cuddle up while watching a movie
4. Bake pumpkin or apple flavored treats {see our Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookie recipe below}
5. Enjoy a cold pumpkin beer or alcoholic apple cider
6. Go for a hike through the woods and enjoy the changing color of the leaves
7. Carve a pumpkin
8. Cuddle up by a fire {inside or out}
9. Go to a farmers market for seasonal vegetables & make something delicious together
10. Visit a fall festival

And I’ve made it easy for you- I’ve tried about a dozen different pumpkin cookies recipes and I’ve officially found the best pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe! Trust me, you will love it!

***UPDATE- Heat the oven to 350, not 375! The cookies are even better!!
