Pumpkin Biscuits - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups all-purpose flour, more if needed
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    3 tablespoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
    1/4 teaspoon allspice
    1/8 teaspoon ginger
    1/3 cup butter, cold
    3/4 cup pumpkin
    3/4 cup milk
Preparation
    Stir together dry ingredients.
    Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
    Add pumpkin and milk, stirring just until ingredients are moistened and a soft dough forms. If the dough seems very soft, add more flour, a few tablespoons at a time, just until the dough is easy to handle.
    On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a half-inch thick.
    Using a 2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter in a simple shape of your choice (such as a pumpkin or leaf), dip the cutter into flour, shake off excess and press into biscuit dough.
    Place biscuits on a lightly greased cookie sheet one-inch apart and bake at 450 degrees F for 8 to 12 minutes or until golden brown.
    Serve hot with butter and honey or apple butter.
