GRANDPA'S FAVORITE PUMPKIN BALLS 
2 1/2 c. plain flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 c. chocolate chips
1 c. raisins
1/2 c. chopped nuts
1 stick butter
3/4 c. sugar
1/2 can pumpkin
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 egg

Sift dry ingredients together and set aside. Cream butter, sugar, egg, pumpkin and vanilla together in a large bowl. Add dry ingredients. Beat to a smooth batter. Stir in chocolate chips, raisins and nuts. Drop by spoonfuls into a mini-muffin pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray (you can also drop onto greased cookie sheet but shapes won't be as uniform).

Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from pan immediately and place on a rack to cool. These freeze very well to save for Grandpa's visits!
