Pumpkin Cookies {YuMmY}!!

I got this recipe from a friend, Kelly. {thanks girly}! My family loves these cookies! 

1 1/2 cup shortening

2 1/4 cup brown sugar
4 eggs
1 large can pumpkin
6 3/4 cup flour
3 teaspoon baking powder
3 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoon baking soda
3 teaspoon vanilla
3-4 teaspoon cinnamon
3 teaspoon nutmeg
2 teaspoon cloves

Drop dough on cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 10-15 minutes.


**This is a big recipe** for a small family I usually cut this recipe in half.

Also, you can add chocolate chips and or make a a cream cheese frosting and add a dollop onto of each "cooled" cookie with some chopped up nuts of your choice. {any variation is delicious!!}
