The Madera Coyotes girls water polo team let a two-goal fourth quarter lead, and a two-goal overtime lead evaporate in a double-overtime loss to the Chowchilla Tribe in the quarterfinals of the Central Section Div. III playoffs at the McAlister Swim Complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Coyotes led, 7-5, with six minutes left in the match, and the Tribe outscored Madera 3-1 to tie the match with 29.9 seconds left. Madera scored the first two goals over overtime, and, again, Chowchilla outscored Madera 3-1 to force a second overtime. Chowchilla scored the game-tying goal with 19 seconds left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the golden goal, double overtime period, Chowchilla took advantage of a man advantage for the winning goal 43 seconds into the overtime to advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of Chowchilla\u2019s 12 goals, five were scored on a man advantage. Five goals were scored with lob shots, and three were scored with long range shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Emily Wattenbarger led the Coyotes with six goals. Ari Gill and Giselle Jimenez scored two each, and Aubrey Tatro added a goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both teams kind of worked through the early-game jitters with neither scoring in the first half of the first period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gill got the Coyotes on the scoreboard with a long shot from the right side into the upper left corner with 3:13 left in the first period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Less than 30 seconds later, Chowchilla scored with a lob shot on a mad advantage to tie the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both teams struggled to find the net in the second period. Madera had five shots hit either crossbar or the post in the first half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chowchilla got a man advantage, and shot on goal from the left. Madera got a hand on the ball, but it went inside the near post for a 4-2 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Madera came back before the half ended. Crystal Oregel sent a long shot on goal, but it was blocked. Tatro was in front of the net, and sent the rebound past the goalie for the goal with 39.9 seconds left in the half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Madera tied the score a minute into the second half. Wattenbarger got the ball in the middle, and waited for the right time to shot. She finally shot off the goalie\u2019s arm into the right side to tie the match at four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
More than four minutes went by without a score. Gill got the ball to Jimenez on the left. Jimenez sent a soft floater into the right corner of the goal to give Madera a 5-3 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chowchilla tied the match 17 seconds later with a man advantage goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With 12.6 seconds left in the third, Chowchilla was called for a foul, and Madera was given a five-meter penalty shot. Wattenbarger shot into the upper left corner for the 6-5 lead heading to the fourth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A minute into the fourth, Madera added to its lead when Jimenez got the ball on the left with a man advantage. She shot inside the far post for the goal, and a 7-5 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chowchilla scored on a lob shot in the fourth minute to cut the lead to one, and then hit a mid-pool shot to tie the match with 2:54 left in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Twenty-seven seconds later, Madera had a man advantage. Gill\u2019s shot on goal was blocked. But, Wattenbarger got the rebound, and shot into the net for an 8-7 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chowchilla earned a five-meter penalty shot, and Madera goalie Katie Sanchez made the block going to her right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, Chowchilla scored on a mid-pool shot with 29.9 seconds left in the fourth to send the match into overtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With a minute left in first half of overtime, Wattenbarger got the ball at mid-pool, and took the ball to the goal. She sent a shot over the goalie for a 9-8 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sanchez made a block with 37 seconds left in the first half of overtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Madera scored on the race to the ball to open the second half of overtime. Jimenez won the swim, and swiped the ball to Oregel on the left. She sent the ball to Wattenbarger in front of the net, who shot into the right corner for a 10-8 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chowchilla scored 13 seconds later with a lob shot goal. Then, with 1:11 left, Chowchilla tied it with a goal on a man advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Madera got a man advantage with 35.2 seconds left. Gill got the ball in the middle, and sent a shot to the right corner for the goal, and an 11-10 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, Chowchilla scored from mid-pool with a lob goal with 19.9 seconds left to send the match to golden goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Madera won the opening swim, but couldn\u2019t get a shot off. Chowchilla earned a man advantage, and shot from the right inside the near post for the game-winning goal 47 seconds into overtime.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Two special teams mistakes and a failed punt fake led to a 27-22 loss for the Madera South Stallions in its Div. VI first-round battle with Minarets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Third-seeded Minarets started two drives at the Stallions\u2019 11, and another at the 27 for the win Friday against the 14th-seeded Stallions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The upset-minded Stallions out gained Minarets, 224-108. In fact, the Stallions held Minarets to just 16 rushing yards. They sacked Minarets\u2019 quarterback four times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, Minarets\u2019 average starting field position was the Madera South 44 while Madera South\u2019s average starting field position was its own 29.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John Ledesma led the Stallions\u2019 offense. He gained 79 yards on the ground. However, he also lost 44 yards in sacks and another carry for a loss. Ledesma also threw for 167 yards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Minarets only ran 25 plays in the game while the Stallions ran 60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A sack by Elijah Chavez and a tackle for loss by A.J. Alvarez forced a Minarets three-and-out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Stallions went on a 13-play, 60-yard drive to get the first score of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ledesma ran for 11 on fourth-and-two. He hit Lucas Amesquita for 14 more to the Minarets 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diego Reyna Navarro carried for four yards on fourth-and-two. On the next play, Reyna Navarro went up the middle, and broke to the left for a one-yard touchdown for a 7-0 lead with four minutes left in the first quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sacks by Jonathan Buendia and Adam Sandez forced a Minarets punt. However, the Stallions were forced to punt from its own 11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The snap to punter Orland Flores bounced to him. Flores picked up the ball, and threw it away to turn the ball over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Minarets scored three plays later from the 11 to tie the game with nine minutes left in the half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Stallions got an initial first down on a Ledesma run, but was forced to punt. The snap went over Flores\u2019 head. Flores was able to get the punt off, but it went for a loss of six at the Stallions\u2019 28.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Minarets scored on the next play, from 38 yards out, after a holding penalty, for a 15-7 lead with five minutes left in the half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Stallions drove down the field to try to tie the score. They drove 68 yards on 14 plays to inside the Minarets\u2019 five. Ledesma hit King Travis for 15 yards, and a first down on third-and-10 to keep the driving going. Ledesma carried for five on third-and-two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Stallions got a first-and-goal from the nine. Reyna Navarro carried three times to the three. Ledesma got the call, and he tried to go around the right end, but was stuffed at the two to end the half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the Stallions went three-and-out to open the third, Minarets completed a quick pass to the 40-yard line. Madera South went for the pick, and missed, and Minarets went 65 yards for a touchdown. The point after run failed, but Minarets led 21-7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Stallions faced a third-and-19, and Ledesma was intercepted. Minarets returned the pick to the Stallions\u2019 11. The Mustangs scored three plays later. Sandez blocked the extra point, but Minarets led 27-7 with five minutes left in the third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Stallions got a 16-yard run from Ledesma to open the next drive. Ledesma gained three on fourth-and-two, and hit Buendia for 21 yards to the Minarets\u2019 six.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After Ledesma was sacked, Reyna Navarro came in at quarterback while Ledesma lined up at receiver. Reyna Navarro floated a perfect pass for Ledesma in the end zone for the touchdown. Ledesma ran in the two-point conversion to cut the lead to 27-15 with a minute left in the third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the Stallions forced a punt, Madera South got a 19-yard pass to Buendia, but Ledesma was sacked to force a punt. The Stallions tried a fake punt at their own 27, but threw incomplete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, Minarets couldn\u2019t capitalize, and turned the ball over on downs after Sandez stuffed the Mustangs for no gain on fourth-and-two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both teams traded punts, and the Stallions went on a long drive. Minarets picked off Ledesma on the first play of the drive, but a penalty nullified the pick-6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Stallions went on a 16-play drive that took most of the fourth quarter clock. Ledesma hit Sandez for six on third-and-five. Ledesma ran for seven on fourth-and-five, and Minarets was hit with a pass interference penalty on third-and-13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A 33-yard pass to Travis put the ball on the nine. Three plays later, Ledesma scored with a second effort on a quarterback sneak over the pile for the touchdown. Flores\u2019 kick cut the lead to 27-22 with 1:12 left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 14th-seeded Atascadero Greyhounds scored 21 first half points, and the third-seeded Liberty Hawks couldn\u2019t battle back in 24-14 loss in the first round of the Div. IV Central Section playoffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In its first playoff game on its new field, the Hawks couldn\u2019t find enough offense, and had to try to overcome emotions Friday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Atascadero scored touchdowns on its first three drives. Liberty scored a touchdown on its first and second-to-last drives of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Liberty was held to its second lowest offensive output of the season with 259 yards, but they still out gained Atascadero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The biggest factor was the penalties for the Hawks. They had 12 for 130 yards. They also had two players disqualified from the game after receiving two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties. Liberty was only hit for three penalties for 30 yards in the first half. The offense was responsible for 10 penalties for 105 yards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All-everything running back Henry Bilskey was held to just 38 yards after bruising his back on a first quarter touchdown drive. Bilskey, who finished with more than 1,900 yards rushing tried to come back in the game, but was a shell of his healthy self.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite everything that could have gone wrong for the Hawks, they still found themselves in the game in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Atascadero scored on a 14-play, 74 yard drive to open the scoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Quarterback Brody Von Flue completed a 10-play, 73-yard drive with a scramble drill touchdown. He rolled to his left and couldn\u2019t find anyone open. He reversed his field, and got a block from Tyler McCamey and a screen from Austin Graham for a touchdown run to tie the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But, Atascadero scored on an 11-play, 56 yards drive and an eight-play, 57-yard drive to take a 21-7 halftime lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, the Hawks had to punt on its next four drives that resulted in negative 14 yards because of penalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Liberty showed sparks of life when McCamey blocked an Atascadero punt, and Blayz Ketchum returned it to the Atascadero 40, but a penalty moved the Hawks back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Hawks went on a 14-play, 40-yard drive that ended with a McCamey touchdown run to cut the lead to 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Liberty\u2019s defense, led by Brody Sisco, forced a turnover on downs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the Hawks couldn\u2019t overcome a holding penalty, and turned the ball over on downs to end their season.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

After heading into halftime trailing by four, the Orosi Cardinals outscored the Matilda Torres Toros 28-19 the rest of the way for a 46-33 victory in the first round of the Central Section Div. V playoffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 14th-seeded Toros were outscored by the third-seeded Cardinals 38-13 in the second and third quarters, and the Toros couldn\u2019t respond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Toros out gained the Cardinals, 438-372, but the Toros couldn\u2019t overcome three turnovers. One was returned for a touchdown, and another led to a Cardinals\u2019 touchdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Caden Warden led the Toros with 112 yards on 10 carries. Eleazar Camargo carried eight times for 53 yards, and scored three of Torres\u2019 five touchdowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Joseph Pasillas caught four passes for 122 yards, and a touchdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cardinals\u2019 ground attack averaged 5.4 yards a carry. Their leading back carried 25 times for 175 yards with four of his team\u2019s six touchdowns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Toros opened the game with an 80-yard touchdown drive. Nathaniel Pichardo completed a 14-yard pass to Pasillas. On third-and-four, Pasillas caught a 28-yard pass to the Orosi 25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Angel De La Sancha carried for 16 yards to the two-yard line. De La Sancha scored two plays later for a 7-0 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Toros popped up the ensuing kick, and Keondre Shepherd came up with the Torres recovery. However, the Toros turned the ball over on downs at the Orosi 47.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cardinals drove down the field with six run plays, the final coming from two yards out. The point after was missed, and Torres led, 7-6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Toros started another drive into Orosi territory, highlighted go a 19-yard pass from Pichardo to Darryn Garcia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, on fourth-and-four, Torres mishandled the snap, and Orosi recovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cardinals scored five plays later when an out-and-up led to a wide-open 37-yard touchdown pass for a 12-7 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Toros came right back two plays later. Pichardo scrambled to his right. Pasillas saw his quarterback scrambling, and released up the field. Pichardo hit Pasillas at the Torres 45, and Pasillas did the rest for a 72-yard touchdown. Eduardo Jimenez Magdaleno hit the extra point for a 14-12 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Orosi went on a nine-play, 74-yard drive that was culminated with a48-yard touchdown pass to take an 18-14 lead into the half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Orosi opened the second half with a 54-yard kick-off return, and scored four plays later from five yards out for a 24-14 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Three Warden runs gained 26 yards into Orosi territory. De La Sancha got the next carry, and ran into a wall. He was getting pushed back by the Orosi defense, and then was stripped of the ball after his forward progress was stopped. Orosi recovered the fumble, and returned it 60 yards the other way for a touchdown after both teams stopped for a second before realizing the ball was still in play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The point after failed, but Orosi led 30-14.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Toros came back with six straight runs. Warden opened the drive with a 45-yard run to the Orosi 42. Camargo gained 13 and Warden gained 16 yards on three carries to the 13.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Camargo got the carry up the middle, broke four tackles, and spun out of another at the five for the touchdown to cut the lead to 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Orosi went on a 12-play, 61-yard drive to add to its lead with a two-yard touchdown run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pichardo opened the next Torres drive with a 31-yard pass to Jordan Garcia to get into Orosi territory. Two Warden runs gained 18 to the six. Camargo got the carry up the middle for the touchdown to cut the lead to 11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Orosi, again, answered back with an 11-play, 61-yard drive that ended with a five-yard touchdown run to open a 44-27 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Toros went four-and-out on their next drive, but the Toros forced Orosi to go four-and-out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Toros scored on the next play when Pichardo hit a wide open Camargo out of the backfield on the left. He didn\u2019t hit a defender for about 30 yards when he broke through two defenders at the Orosi 28 en route to a 70-yard touchdown. The pass failed, and Torres trailed 44-33.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Orosi recovered the ensuing onside kick, and ran out the clock for the win.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

My heart was pounding, hearing Chuck\u2019s voice again. I would be lying if I said I didn\u2019t feel a tinge of sadness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s been a while since we lost our previous owner and publisher, Chuck Doud, yet everyday, I\u2019m still reminded of his presence. But hearing him call out, that time, was different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Perhaps it was just a different time, a different place. Not just for me or him, but for the Tribune and Madera, itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I remember walking up toward the front office area, back on the old East 7th Street property. I can still remember doing that, back before we had to move locations. The walls were a bit close, and if I really thought about it, did feel small; reflecting the origins of the current-day iteration of Madera Printing & Publishing Co.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As some of my coworkers would say, we still are, but we are a tightly-knit group, having overcome the many adversities of being in the printing and publishing industry in the age of digital information. I\u2019m still proud of our continued existence, even into today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The main hallway of the building in my dream was different. It opened into a somewhat new front office: I think our Circulation department was relocated, in favor of having the Editorial department in its place. To me, that could only mean that the building had been renovated, implying other details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Tribune was prosperous enough to renovate the old building, and a prosperous newspaper is reflective of a prosperous society. Madera, the city I was born in, had grown, enough to warrant changes within our organization and the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chuck greeted me, dressed in his usual pin-striped (or solid, if that\u2019s how you might recall him) dress shirt and tan slacks. He was smiling, without a care in the world. Leonard Soliz, our former General Manager, was there in his office, across from Chuck\u2019s. Between them was Ellen Beach, our former Legal Clerk. Maintaining the front desk were Maria Madrigal and Alexandra Ganas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the Editorial Department sat our Photographer, Wendy Alexander, dutifully working on photo-editing for the next issue to be printed. Across from her were several other coworkers and former coworkers: Tami Jo Nix, Calvin Tatum, and Ramona Frances, to name a few. These are names that, if you\u2019ve been a reader of the paper for the past few decades, you may be familiar with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After hearing Chuck\u2019s voice and waking up, I\u2019ve taken some time to wrestle with this. In some ways, I could say that I miss them, and I do. But another thought has been eating at me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Waking up, to a different Tribune, and a different Madera is, in a way, a nightmare. Perhaps my life, thus far, would have been better in that place. But I would lose the everything and everyone I know now.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Def: a-\u02ccnam-\u02c8n\u0113-sez – a recalling to mind; reminiscence. \u201cBen, baby, how ya doin\u2019?\u201d It was all I needed to hear to wake up.

Jance\u2019s Joanna Brady series is the same reason that I like to watch the old episodes of Law and Order, Special Victims Unit on TV. Each book\/episode is a complete mystery, yet the perennial characters remain the same. And they age a bit with each new edition and as situations change. I suppose it\u2019s a kind of literary soap opera, but much better than the ones shown on the boob tube.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #11 \u201cExit Wounds\u201d (2003, 390 pages in paperback format) finds Sheriff Joanna Brady in the middle of a re-election campaign against her former deputy, approaching the big Fourth of July celebration, participating in two parades and several community picnics, and supporting her daughter Jenny in her first barrel-racing event on her horse Kiddo at the rodeo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Joanna not only has to cope with all of the above, but there\u2019s a heat dome hovering over Bisbee. Then Carol Mossman is found shot to death and locked in her house, surrounded by 17 dogs. The dogs have died from the heat and lack of food and water. However, one tiny puppy was left behind when the older dogs initially ran into the house. Now, Joanna not only has to solve the crime, but she has also adopted the puppy, much to Jenny\u2019s delight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #12 \u201cDead Wrong\u201d (2006, 437 pages in paperback format) begins with Sheriff Joanna Brady, now nine months pregnant, expecting her second child at any moment. But that doesn\u2019t interfere with the intrepid law enforcer from dealing with two major crimes. First, a dead man is found in the desert with all of his fingers cut off. Second, one of her employees, an animal control officer, has been brutally attacked and left for dead at the site of an unauthorized stakeout. The ACO was trying to verify that highly illegal dog-fighting contests were taking place at a ranch that sort of straddles the Arizona-New Mexico border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The investigation leads to an examination of family histories and a possible swap of babies many years ago. Author J.A. Jance keeps us intrigued all the way to the delivery room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n #13 \u201cDamage Control\u201d (2008, 436 pages in paperback format). With a new baby in her life, Sheriff Joanna Brady gets little relief during her \u201cmaternity leave.\u201d A sweet, loving elderly couple enjoy a picnic at their favorite overlook. When they finish lunch, the 91-year-old husband backs away from the edge, takes holds of his wife\u2019s hand, and guns the engine. There is a suicide note, signed by both, in the glove box of the demolished car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Elsewhere in Cochise County, a boy finds a human skull in a garbage bag. Then, a fire consumes a mobile home, taking the life of a disabled man. Although Joanna has a husband and \u2014 unbelievably \u2014 a mother to help out at home, one wonders how she will manage to keep all the balls in the air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2022 \u2022 \u2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n Puede contactar a Jim Glynn en j_glynn@att.net.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One of the reasons that I enjoy J.A.

But I do bake a lot of goodies and sweets and I do live in the woods.<\/p>\n\n If you like to bake with pumpkin, here are some recipes I hope you enjoy. I also hope you are all enjoying the fall weather.<\/p>\n\n 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin puree<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 3\/4 cup light brown sugar, packed<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1 1\/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1\/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1\/4 teaspoon ground ginger<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1\/2 cucharadita de sal<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 1\/2 teaspoon vanilla extract<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 3 large eggs, slightly beaten<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 3\/4 cups half-and-half or light cream<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1. Butter a 1 1\/2-quart casserole dish. Preheat oven to 350.<\/p>\n\n 2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and whisk or beat on low speed until blended. Pour into the prepared casserole and bake for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. If desired, serve with sweetened whipped cream and cinnamon sugar for sprinkling. Makes 6 to 8 servings.<\/p>\n\n 2 1\/2 tazas de harina de trigo todo uso<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 cucharadita de polvo de hornear<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 cucharadita de bicarbonato de sodio<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 2 cucharaditas de canela molida<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1\/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1\/2 cucharadita de clavo molido<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1\/2 cucharadita de sal<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1\/2 taza de mantequilla, ablandada<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 1\/2 cups granulated sugar<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 cup canned pumpkin puree<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 huevo<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1 cucharadita de extracto de vainilla<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Glaseado<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 2 tazas de az\u00facar impalpable<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 3 tablespoons milk<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 tablespoon melted butter<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 cucharadita de extracto de vainilla<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1. Preheat oven to 350. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt; set aside.<\/p>\n\n 2. In a medium bowl, cream together the 1\/2 cup of butter and granulated sugar. Add pumpkin, egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla to butter mixture, and beat until creamy. Mix in dry ingredients. Drop on baking sheet by tablespoonfuls; flatten slightly.<\/p>\n\n 3. Bake 15 to 20 minutes. Prepare glaze while cookies bake, then drizzle over each cookie. To make glaze: Combine confectioners\u2019 sugar, milk, 1 tablespoon melted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Add milk, as needed, for a drizzling consistency.<\/p>\n\n 1 can (15-oz.) pumpkin puree (not pie filling)<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 4 large eggs, room temperature<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 2\/3 cups sugar<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1 cup vegetable or canola oil<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 2 cups all-purpose flour<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 4 teaspoons baking powder<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 2 teaspoons cinnamon<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 cucharadita de sal kosher<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Glaseado<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 6 ounces cream cheese, room temperature<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 taza de mantequilla sin sal, descongelada<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1 cucharadita de extracto de vainilla<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 4 cups confectioners\u2019 sugar, sifted<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Finishing touches:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1\/3 to 1\/2 cup maple syrup<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1\/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1. Preheat oven to 350. Spray and line a 9-by-13-inch pan with parchment paper, creating an overhang.<\/p>\n\n 2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, oil and pumpkin. Add remaining ingredients and mix well.<\/p>\n\n 3. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.<\/p>\n\n 4. Cool for 10 minutes before turning out onto rack to cool completely for frosting.<\/p>\n\n 5. For frosting, cream butter and cream cheese in a mixing bowl until smooth and fluffy. Using an electric mixer, add the confectioners\u2019 sugar in three batches, starting the beaters on low, to avoid the sugar spraying around. Once the sugar is incorporated, turn the speed up to high and beat for 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and mix well. Use frosting immediately.<\/p>\n\n 6. Spread frosting on with a spatula, then use the back of a spoon to make swirls. Drizzle maple syrup, concentrating on the swirls.

Pour batter into pans, then sprinkle with topping.<\/p>\n\n 4. Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes.
