1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda
1 Tbs. cinnamon

3 Tbs. butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 cup confectioner's sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
Pinch of salt
HOW TO MAKE THIS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well. Stir in pumpkin. In medium bowl, sift together baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger, salt and flour. Add to pumpkin mixture and mix well. Drop by heaping tablespoons onto a slightly greased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
FROSTING:
In a medium saucepan, combine butter, cream and brown sugar over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture just begins to boil. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. When cool, stir in confectioner's sugar. Spread over cooled cookie dough. Can be sticky so you can let chill before scooping. Also after scooping, can be frozen for later use. After cooking, you can use a glass to flatten them a little.
