Pumpkin Drop Cookies
What you need:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup raisins
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
3/4 cup chocolate chips
What you need to do:
Stir together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and nutmeg. In a mixing bowl beat butter for 30 seconds. Add brown sugar and beat until fluffy. Add egg, pumpkin and vanilla; beat well. Add dry ingredients to beaten mixture, beating till well combined. Stir in raisins, walnuts and chocolate chips. Drop from spoon onto cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes.
Hint for raisins: Usually raisins are pretty dry and have an odd texture in cookies. Place however many raisins you will be using in a small dish. Pour 1 cup of boiling water over raisins and let sit for 10 minutes. Drain water. Result: Plump juicy raisins perfect for baked goods.
