Looking for a basic Pumpkin Cookie recipe.

I intend to spruce it up with chopped pistachios, but was wondering if anyone has one or a link to share. THANKS!

They have a pumpkin and butterscotch chip muffin I want to try. If you find a good cookie recipe let me know? I've been going through cookie and muffin recipes lately that have healthier ingredients (veggies, fruit, oats etc) so I can add healthier snacks to my juice and simple foods regime. I'd love to have a good pumpkin cookie base.
