Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix butter and sugar until creamy. Add pumpkin and eggs, continuing to beat until fully blended. Add baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Mix until combined then add flour, raisins and nuts. Drop dough by the tablespoonful onto a lightly greased baking sheet and bake 10-15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, remove from baking sheet and cool cookies on a wire rack. Frosting: Place butterscotch chips, honey and milk in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between intervals, until smooth then cool slightly. When fully cooled, frost cookies and allow butterscotch frosting to harden.
