What can you do with pumpkin other than pies?

Pumpkin Roll

3 eggs, beat on high for 5 minutes.
1 c. sugar gradually added to the eggs
2/3 c. pumpkin (stir into the above mixture)
1 t. lemon juice

In another bowl mix.
3/4 c. flour
1 t. baking powder
2 t. cinnamon
1 t. ginger
½ t. nutmeg
½ t. salt

Stir the above together and fold into pumpkin mixture. Spread in a greased and floured jelly roll pan, I have also greased the pan and sprinkles it with powdered sugar but it can make it slightly sticky. Top with 1 c. finely chopped walnuts (optional) Bake at 375 for 15 mins. Turn out on tea towel, cool. Spread filling over cake. Roll, and sprinkle with powdered sugar, and chill.

Filling
1 c powdered sugar
6 oz. cream cheese

4 T. butter
½ t. vanilla

Beat until smooth.
(Note: 1 large can of pumpkin makes 5 rolls. Recipe freezes well.)

Pumpkin Cookies


1 spice cake mix
1 15 oz. can pumpkin
1 c. chocolate chips

Mix canned pumpkin and spice mix together, just the mix from the box not the mixture with eggs and the oil. Add chocolate chips, drop onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes.


Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins
3 cups sugar
6 eggs
1 T. cinnamon
1 tsp. cloves
1/4 tsp. ginger
1 T. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
3 c. milk chocolate chips
2 c. butter
1 large can pumpkin
1 tsp. allspice
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 T. vanilla
1 T. baking powder
4 1/2 cups flower
Mix butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla. Add spices and flour. Mix in pumpkin slowly. Add chocolate chips last. Fill in muffin tins. Bake @ 350 for 15-20 minutes ( maybe longer depending on oven check with toothpick)This recipe makes a ton, so I froze a bunch of them. They taste so good after you pop them into the microwave for 30 seconds...melted chocolate chips..mmmm.
