My Story
A simpler recipe came to us and we worked it to be more scrumptious.
Recipe
Total Preparation Time: 15 min
Total Cooking Time: 10-12 min
Ingredients
1/2 cup Butter
1 cup Pumpkin; I use canned
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
2 cups Flour
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Baking Power
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1 cup Raisins
½ cup Chocolate Chips
½ cup Optional: chopped nuts and/or sunflower seeds
Method
Pre-heat oven to 350F
Cream butter and sugar.
Add pumpkin and vanilla
Add mixed dry ingredients
Add chocolate, raisins, and nuts/seeds if desired.
Drop rounded teaspoon sized dough on greased cookie sheet.
Bake 10-12 minutes. Should be moist but baked trough.
Tips
Good quality chocolate chips and fresh, unopened raisins helps.
Sometimes I am more generous with the chocolate chips and raisins.
