Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup cooked, pureed pumpkin (fresh or canned)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups unbleached allpurpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
  • 1 cup raisins

Icing:

  • 2 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 tablespoons whipping cream, fresh orange juice or rum

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add pumpkin, egg and vanilla and mix well. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir into butter mixture until well blended. Add nuts and raisins. Drop by teaspoonful onto parchment covered baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake about 15 minutes, or until golden. Cool.

    I mixed in some white chocolate chips and sprinkled the finished cookies with cinnamon sugar instead of icing. They were delicious! Very moist and true, pretty cakey- they kind of fell apart when I tried to transport them in ziploc bags. But all in all, they were amazingly flavorful and scrumptious. Make them!!

    Delish and fool proof. I made two changes. I toasted the walnuts in the oven before adding to batter....like the taste of the toasted walnuts better. I used a 1/4 tsp. of allspice instead of the fresh nutmeg.
    I made for a welcoming gift for new neighbors who just moved in. I hope I don't eat them all before I get them over to neighbors. Have not iced them yet but still are delicious.
