Place pumpkin seeds on ungreased cookie sheet. Mix together butter and Tabasco sauce and drizzle over the seeds. Combine spices and sprinkle over the coated seeds. Toss well to coat.

Yummy snack!, Guest Tom

This is a really good recipe. I used a bit more chili powder and added some garlic salt. The end result is addictive!
