    Ok, so I posted this three years ago, but then I moved and lost my recipe and I don't feel like slogging through three years of content looking for it again next week when I make these again. (I realize there's easier ways to slog through three years of content. I still want it on hand.)

    Ok, so

    Pumpkin Cookies

    2 cups of canned pumpkin (home processed tastes better though)
    1 cup of margarine/butter
    2 cups of sugar
    4 cups of flour
    2 tsp of baking soda
    2 tsp of baking powder
    1/2 tsp of salt
    2 tsp of cinnamon

    OPTIONAL:
    2 Tbs of orange peel
    1 cups of nuts
    1 1/2 cups of raisins



    Preheat oven to 375F

    1. Mix pumpkin, sugar, orange peel and margarine until combined.
    2. Add baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Mix. Add flour gradually while mixing. If using a food processor, add all of flour with other dry ingredients.
    3. Add nuts and raisins. Mix.
    4. Drop dough onto baking sheet or stone using teaspoon amounts.
    5. Bake 10 minutes. If using a baking stone, bake the first batch for 12 minutes.


    Makes about 4 dozen.


    So anyways, enjoy, have fun, happy two-days-after-Thanksgiving.
