every time I think I'm done with pumpkin...

...those spices pull me back in. I had some leftover canned pumpkin so I looked up non-oatmeal pumpkin cookies and found these: Old-Fashioned Soft Pumpkin Cookies. Well, I figured, it's the brand I have, so they can't be that bad. And they're not bad, not bad at all. They have that soft chewiness that happens when you make a moist pumpkin cookie dough, but it's not gummy or weird. Just a little bit chewier than, say, your average chewy chocolate chip cookie. I also didn't feel like making the glaze, so I threw some dried cranberries in there. I put them in my pumpkin bread, so, same difference, right? I think so. Good cookie.

I have plenty of recipes but none which triggered an immediate response of, "I must try this." Also, I'd never purchased cumin before. It smells like the primary ingredient in a packet of taco seasoning, so you can see why it would need to be balanced out with brown sugar. Actually, all of the spices work well together, even the little tang of thyme. I think I'll be trying it on salmon next.
