INSTRUCTIONS
ICING
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add
pumpkin, egg and vanilla and mix well. Combine flour, baking powder, baking
soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir into butter mixture until well
blended. Add nuts and raisins. Drop by teaspoonful onto parchment covered
baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake about 15 minutes, or until golden.
Cool.
Icing: Cream confectioner's sugar and butter. Add remaining ingredients and
beat until smooth. (If icing is too thin, add more confectioner's sugar; if
too thick, add more cream, orange juice or rum.) Drizzle over cookies.
Yield: 6 dozen Iced Pumpkin Cookies
