Pumpkin Cookies
These pumpkin cookies are amazing. I am trying to figure out why my friend was hiding this recipe from me for so long. The brown sugar icing is heavenly. Even if you don't love pumpkin, you will like these. The cookie is soft and has a slight pumpkin taste with a hint of cinnamon. I can't wait to make these again.
Ingredients

1 c shortening
1 c sugar
1 c pumpkin
1 egg
2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp salt

1/2 c brown sugar
1 c powdered sugar
