Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies II Recipe #288249
Super-simple recipe that results in soft, cakey cookies. I started making these for a quick breakfast item after realizing just how much I was spending on my morning Clif bar. If you aren't so hot on Craisins, feel free to omit them. Stored in an airtight container, these will last about a week.
