Pumpkin Cookies

These are a healthier choice because I have used applesauce and whole wheat flour ... but then I add the canned cream cheese frosting ....... oh well ... enjoy!

PUMPKIN COOKIES

1 - 15 oz can pumpkin
1 - cup brown sugar
1/3 - cup applesauce
3 - cups oatmeal
2 - cups wholewheat flour
1 - tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp each:  nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, ground cloves

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix pumpkin, brown sugar and applesauce, then add the spices and soda an mix well.  Add the oatmeal and flour.
Drop by spoon on to baking sheet (then I flatten a bit).  Bake 13-15 minutes.
Remove and slightly frost each warm cookie.

Makes about 4 dozen.
