PUMPKIN COOKIES

Hey gang: Well here is another cookie recipe, these are really healthy, as everyone knows pumpkin is a vegetable. I have been making these for a few months now. They are another recipe that I have had forever and just adjusted some of the ingredients.
PUMPKIN COOKIES
2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar splenda...the original recipe calls for 1 1/2 cup of brown sugar.
1/2 cup granulated splenda..or a little bit more if you like them sweet.
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup of puree pumpkin..I use canned pumpkin.
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup raisins...optional
Oven....375'
Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, sugars.
Cream together margarine, eggs and vanilla and add pumpkin.
Mix in dry ingredients add nuts and raisins. Mix well and drop by spoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets.
Bake for 15 minutes, cool and then enjoy with a tall glass of skim milk or a nice cup of tea or coffee.
Makes about 4 dozen medium cookies.
Sometimes if I don't feel like baking the cookies I put the dough in the refrigerator overnight and bake them the next day.
Once again I don't have the values for these cookies but they are really healthy and delicious.
Oh and by the way for the previous recipe the Banana Oatmeal Cookies I also make them a day in advance and bake them the next day.
