Maple Pumpkin Cookies

---

This is a great recipe to use up that 1/2 cup leftover pumpkin. Good flavour too. Made this today and used 1/2 cup splenda instead of white sugar. Used whole wheat flour instead of white. Used a 1 1/2 in. Cookie scoop and made 32 cookies. These are soft cakelike cookies. Raisins or nuts could be added if desired.
