Great Pumpkin Cookies

 

4 cups unsifted all-purpose flour

2 cups quick or old fashioned oats, uncooked

2 tsps. baking soda

2 tsps. ground cinnamon

1 tsp. salt

1 1/2 cups butter or margarine, softened

2 cups firmly packed brown sugar

1 cup granulated sugar

1 egg

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1 can, 16 ounce, solid pack pumpkin

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

icing

sprinkles or other cookie decorations

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour, oats,

cinnamon, and salt; set aside. Cream butter, add

sugars gradually, beating until light and fluffy. Add

the egg and vanilla; mix well. Alternate after each

addition. Stir in chocolate chips. For each cookie,

drop 1/4 cup dough onto lightly greased cookie sheet.

Spread into a pumpkin shape using a thin metal spatula

or the back of a large metal spoon. Add a bit more

dough to form a stem. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25

minutes, until cookies are firm and browned. Remove

and cool on racks. Decorate using your favorite icing

and assorted candies. Makes about 32 large cookies.

Notes: I thought butterscotch chips, white chocolate

morsels or toffee bits worked better in these. For

icing you can use a plain white icing and add yellow

and red food coloring to create orange or caramel

frosting is nice too. You can make faces with another

color of icing, or sprinkle with cookie decorations or

eat plain or just ice them.
