Directions

Preheat oven to 350* and prepare baking sheets by covering with parchment paper.

In medium mixing bowl add all the dry ingredients.  Set aside.
In a stand mixer cream the butter and sugar together.  Add the pumpkin puree, egg and vanilla and mix thoroughly. 

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.  Beat on low speed until well combined.  Stir in your cranberries, nuts, coconut or any other addition you can think of!

Drop a spoonful onto the baking sheet lined with the parchment paper by the tablespoon.  The batter will be slightly wet and sticky.  These cookies will rise up, but not out so place 1″ apart, at least.  

Bake 12 minutes or until golden brown.  Remove from the oven and let stand for five minutes before placing them on a cooling rack.
Store in an airtight container.  Freeze for up to 3 months.
