Pumpkin Blondie Cookies

Well I wasn't sure what to call these, but they are a sort of chewy moist cookie. They are super moorish, lovely and light. They happen to be gluten free, oil free and mostly refined sugar free. It's up to you how you glaze them, the glaze seen here uses icing sugar, if you want to keep it sugar free, just melted dark chocolate would work well.

SERVES:
12-18 cookies
