Nicola Swanson's Iced Pumpkin Cookies

This is such a fast and easy recipe - I love making these cookies (not to mention eat them :) lol)  They are such a hit at parties and fellowships or just at home!



Ingredients:
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon allspice
3/4 cups butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 egg beaten
1 cup pumpkin
1/4 cups milk

Sift first five ingredients.  Cream together sugar and butter.  Add egg and pumpkin.  Alternate stirring in milk and flour mixture.

Bake at 350F for 10 minutes

Frosting:
1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cups softened butter
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 or 3 tablespoons cream or milk

Mix well, frost cooled cookies, and taste as they melt in your mouth! :)
