Ingredients:
- 3 cups flour
- 1 1/4 cup of pumpkin
- 1 1/1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cloves (like the ones in pumpkin pie spice)
- 1 1/2- 2 cups sugar
- 1/2 stick of butter (soft/melted, though)
- 1 1/2 eggs
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda and powder. Do this until they are all one big powder.
3. In an electric mixer, beat together the butter and sugar until thoroughly blended.
4. Slowly beat in the pumpkin. Let the mixture turn orange. Then let it sit for about 5 minutes.
5. After this time is up, turn on the mixer again. Add in the eggs, extract, and dry mixture into the mixer slowly.
6. When everything has been combined, roll the 'dough' into tiny balls about 1 inch thick and wide.
7. Place the balls about 4 inches apart from eachother on cookie sheets. Gently flatten them with the palm of your hand until they are each only about 1/2 inch thick.
8. Cook the cookies in the oven for about 20 minutes.
9. Once the cookies are taken out of the oven, cool them on cooling racks for about 7 minutes. Take this time to prepare the glaze below:
