PUMPKIN SUGAR COOKIES

¾ cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg
½ cup pumpkin
½ tsp. vanilla
½ tsp. cinnamon
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. baking powder
2½ cups flour


Cream together butter and sugar. Add egg. Mix in pumpkin and vanilla. Add cinnamon, salt, and baking powder. Mix flour in last. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, best if refrigerated overnight.***

After chilled, roll dough out onto floured surface. Cut with cookie cutters. Bake at 400º for 6-8 minutes.

Frost with Pumpkin Cream Cheese Frosting or Cinnabon Cinnamon Roll Frosting when cookies are cooled.

***My recommendation is to divide dough in half and sandwich between plastic wrap, shaping and flattening like you would a pie crust. This dough gets very hard and is easiest to peal the plastic away, and begin rolling out an already semi-flat and circular shape.

1½ cups canned pumpkin

1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt

In a large bowl mix sugar, oil, eggs, pumpkin, water and spices; blend thoroughly.

In another bowl (or on wax paper) combine dry ingredients and then sift into pumpkin mixture. Mix and blend thoroughly. Add raisins and nuts.

Let stand 1 hour at room temperature. Bake at 400º for 15-20 minutes.
