PUMPKIN COOKIES WITH FROSTING
Soft cake-like cookie with a wonderful frosting. A friend made these when my (then) toddler son came over for a playdate, and, after eating a plateful, I let him run screaming through her house while I frantically copied down the recipe. There are a few things I insist be organic, and winter squash is one of them. Organic pie pumpkins are easy to find in the Fall for cooking, mashing and storing in the freezer, but organic canned pumpkin is also now readily available. I never count cookies. Yield is a total guess.
