Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

Cookies had a flavor similar to a shortbread, but were soft and light. The batter is very soft. You really need to "drop" the batter into the sugar and just roll it around. It might be a good idea to chill the batter first. I will make these again with the addition of chopped pecans and a little grated orange peel.
