My friend Albert sent me the recipe for these Australian yummies. I quickly became seriously addicted to them.

Cream butter with sugar, add egg and incorporate. Mix in pumpkin. Sift together the dry ingredients and mix in the pumpkin mixture and the milk. Knead gently with on a lightly dusted board. Cut into rounds with a "scone cutter" (I wonder if it was okay to use a biscuit cutter).

Bake in a hot oven (400°F/204°C) for 15 minutes. They stuck a bit to my baking sheet so consider using parchment or greasing the baking sheet.

Really a very nice, subtle pumpkin flavor. Tasty just with butter. I felt that they needed a little spice so I added some pumpkin pie spice. I figure about 1/2 - 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice or your own blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
