Pumpkin Cookies
1 C. Crisco
2 C. Pumpkin or Butternut Squash
2 C. White Sugar
4 C. Flour
2 tsp. soda
2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. cinnamon
Frosting*
8 oz. Cream Cheese
1/2 C. Butter
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 T. Milk
6 C. Powdered sugar
Cream together the Crisco, pumpkin and sugar. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Bake at 350 degrees until done. (about 14 minutes in my oven)
Frosting: Allow cream cheese and butter to soften. Beat cream cheese, butter, vanilla and milk until creamy. Add powdered sugar and then frost your cookies. Yield: 50 cookies
*I found for myself that 1 batch of frosting is way to much for 1 batch of cookies. It worked great for me to only make a half recipe of the frosting for 1 batch of cookies.
Enjoy!
Nice signature. It suits you!

ReplyDeleteOh yum! I have lots of extra pumpkin since we buy them for fall decor and then I cook them up. This looks like a recipe that I need to try.
ReplyDeleteI like your signature too and Rachal expressed my sentiments about the word verification. :)
