| I found this cookie receipe on a non-vegan site (oh the horror!) yet it is totally veggie friendly. i made about a billion of them for a party and everyone loved them. I told them they were vegan after and they were all like "really?". Don't you just love that? |

Equipment:
normal cookie sheet and favorite wooden spoon. If you're making multiple batches replacing the spoon with a standmixer will save time.
Ingredients
1/2 c. shortening
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1 c. 100% pure pumpkin puree (NOT pie filling)
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 c. chopped, toasted pecans
2 c. all purpose flour
1 tsp. each: baking powder, baking soda & cinnamon
pinch salt
1/2 tsp. ginger
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/8 tsp. cardamom
Directions
Mix everything together really well. Chill in refriderator for about an hour. Drop by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet lined with parchemnt paper or a non-stick mat (optional but makes removal easier). If you want them to be really pretty put the dough into a big piping bag with a huge swirl tip and pipe swirls onto the baking sheet. Sprinkle with sugar for extra yumminess and bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes. let rest on pan for a few minutes then transfer to cooling rack. |

Delicious, light, cakelike cookies that are not overly sweet. You must try this one! |

They are plain/bland/unexciting. I could barely taste the spices, and they weren't very sweet. Quite disappointing. |
