Pumpkin Cookies
1 cup Brown Sugar
1 cup Butter
1 egg
1 cup Pumpkin
2 cups all-purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
½ teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
Mix together the sugar, butter, and egg, then add the pumpkin and mix it well. Sift together the dry ingredients and add them to the mixture, beating it well. Drop the batter by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 to 15 minutes. When cookies have cooled slightly, frost them with the following icing. This makes a very delicious and moist cookie.
Icing
1 tablespoon Butter
1 tablespoon Milk
¼ cup Pumpkin
Icing Sugar
Cream the butter, add the milk, and pumpkin, and then add enough sugar to bring the icing to spreading consistency.
This has got to be one of my favorite cookie recipes EVER. Every time I make these for friends I get requests for the recipe. These cookies are SO moist and have just enough pumpkin flavor.... oh yummy, I think I'll make some now, just because they are so good. :-)
