Description

This recipe was given to me by a very sweet friend of mine who is 86 years old. My children (6 of them) love this cookie. Frost with a powdered sugar and milk frosting when cool.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
  2. 2. In a large bowl, cream together sugar, egg, shortening, and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon; stir into the creamed mixture. Stir in the pumpkin, raisins, and walnuts. Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets.
