Pumpkin Spice Cookies V.2.0.:
1.25C oat flour
0.5C brown sugar (well-packed)
2 tbsp raw, hulled pumpkin seeds, crushed
1 tsp baking powder [EDIT: This may be a tad too much possible 0.75 tsp?]
0.5 tsp each: salt, cinamon
0.25 tsp cloves
0.125 tsp each: ginger, nutmeg
Pinch each: cardemom, alspice
0.5C veggie oil (or veggie shortening or margarine, etc)
2-3 tbsp mashed winter squash (ideally pumpkin, though I'm using butternut)
1.5 tbsp pumpkinseed butter
1 tsp vanilla
0.25C - 0.5C chocolate chips, chocolate chunks OR crushed up chocolate-pumpkinseed!butter candy (guess which one I used)
DIRECTIONS:
In one bowl, mix the dry ingredients with a fork.
In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients with a fork (or a hand mixer)
Blend (with a fork, or a mixer) the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until smooth (for a given value of smooth)
Add the chocolate bits and mix until well integrated.
Drop by the spoonful onto a well-greased cookie-sheet. NOTE: Leave a good two inches between cookies, as they tend to spread out a lot.
Bake at 325F for 10-15 minutes (I went with fifteen).
Allow to cool (they're delicate cookies -- if you don't do this, they *will* fall apart all over you!), lift off the cookie sheet (carefully), serve and enjoy. :-)

The questions in some areas - esp religion - are REALLY limitted. It was a tad disappointing.
