In large bowl, combine sugar, butter or margarine, pumpkin, vanilla and eggs. Blend well with mixer, then add dry ingredients. Stir in raisins and nuts. Drop by spoonfuls on ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Do not overbake. Cookies should be soft. Cookies can be iced. (A cream cheese canned icing is good.) Makes about 48 cookies; more if small. For applesauce cookies, substitute applesauce for pumpkin and increase flour by 1/2 cup. Use cinnamon, not pumpkin pie spice.
