Pumpkin Cookies Recipe

Grandma's Favorite

Description: This is grandma's favorite recipe. We provide the pumpkins each year. A week or two later, the kids are rewarded with this mouth watering, seasonal goodie. It's one of the things that makes us look forward to going  "over the river and through the woods..."

We don't think there's a better pumpkin cookie recipe than this one.

3/4 cup	Sugar
1 cup	Cooked, strained Pumpkin(or canned)
1	Egg
2 cups	Flour
1 cup	Raisins
1/2 cup	Molasses
1 teaspoon	Baking Soda
1 teaspoon	Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon	Nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon	Salt

1. Pre-heat oven to 375.
2. Cream shortening and sugar.
3. Mix in pumpkin ,egg, and molasses.
4. Stir in dry ingredients, spices and raisins.
5. Drop by the spoonful onto an ungreased baking sheet.
