This is a great recipe to use up that 1/2 cup leftover pumpkin. Good flavour too. Made this today and used 1/2 cup Splenda instead of white sugar. Used whole wheat flour instead of white. Used a 1 1/2 in. cookie scoop and made 32 cookies. These are soft cakelike cookies. Raisins or nuts could be added if desired.

I made these for cookies for my whole family and in-laws for Thanksgiving and everyone LOVED them. I followed the recipe to a tee, except I seperated the batter into 3rds. I kept 1/3rd of it as-is, added chocolate chips to another 3rd and raisins to the remaining 3rd for a little variety. Everyone raved about them.
