A spicy pumpkin glaze coats the tops of these soft, chewy cookies. Perfect for the kids' lunchboxes or after-school snacks, you might consider keeping a supply on hand in the freezer. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for a request. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine |
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar |
2 eggs |
1 cup cooked and mashed pumpkin |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
3 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon allspice |
1/4 teaspoon ginger |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
1 1/4 cups unsifted powdered sugar |
2 tablespoons soft butter or 2 tablespoons margarine |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon allspice |
3 tablespoons mashed pumpkin |
Directions:
1. Cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs and pumpkin until light and fluffy. Stir in vanilla.
2. Measure flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, allspice and ginger and mix in bowl. Stir into creamed mixture to make a rather soft cookie dough. Stir in nuts.
3. Spoon out onto greased cookie sheets, about 2-inches apart in rounded teaspoonfuls.
4. Bake at 375 for 12-15 minutes.
5. Remove while hot onto rack.
6. Cool slightly. Spoon glaze over while cookies are still warm.
7. Spicy Pumpkin Glaze: Stir together powdered sugar, butter, cinnamon, and allspice. Blend in pumpkin to make a smooth glaze.
