Oatmeal (Pumpkin) Cookies

These aren't really cookies. They're more like power-bars.

DRY
2 cups Flour
1 cup Oatmeal
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Baking Soda

WET
1 cup Brown Sugar (or raw sugar, goes in dry)
2 sticks/1 cup of butter, or 3/4 cup of oil, or some combination thereof
1 cup pumpkin (optional)
1 egg
1 tsp Vanilla
Extras: Raisins, chocolate bits, nuts...

Combine dry stuff and set aside. Cream the butter with the sugar, eggs and vanilla. Add half of the pumpkin. Add the extras. Add half the dry stuff, the rest of the pumpkin, and then the rest of the dry stuff. Bake them big on greased cookie sheets at 350F/180C for 15-20 minutes. Let 'em cool, they're hot!
