Pumpkin Cookies With Cream Cheese Frosting

So Nate brought these YUMMY soft pumpkin cookies to Thanksgiving this past November and we all got so excited to get the recipe because he said he made them himself... Turns out no such luck. They were from a baker where he lives. . . I went online and found this recipe... havent tried it yet but its the simplist one I have found. I will be trying it this weekend though.

Cookie

1 c. Shortening
1 c. Sugar
1 c. Pumpkin
1 Egg
2 c. Flour
1 tsp. Soda
1 tsp. Cinnamon
1/2 ts.p Salt

Frosting

1 tbsp. Vanilla
1 lb. Powder Sugar
1 Stick of Butter
8 oz. Cream Cheese

Cream Shortening, sugar, and pumpkin. Add egg and mix well. Add sifted dry ingredients. Drop from spoon onto cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes.

Beat frosting ingredients until smooth. Frost cookies after they have cooled.
Makes 48 cookies...
