Eggless Pumpkin Cookies

These are soooo good! They are always a hit when I bake them for church- it about makes my head spin to see how fast they disappear! The original recipe (click here) calls for chocolate chips, but they are equally good with raisins instead of the chocolate chips.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 to 2 c. of raisins

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. Cream the sugar, shortening, pumpkin and vanilla together. Mix until light and well combined.
  3. Mix the flour, baking soda and ground cinnamon. Stir the flour mixture into the creamed mixture. Mix until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  4. Drop by teaspoons onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 12 to 15 minutes or until set. Let cookies cool on a rack.
