Pumpkin cookies with chocolate drizzle

Capture

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup butter room temperature
  • 1/4 cup pureed banana
  • 1/2 cup truvia baking blend (or 1 cup sugar)
  • 1 15 oz can pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin-pie spice, and salt; set aside
  2. With an electric mixer, beat together butter and truvia. Add egg; beat until smooth. With mixer on low speed, alternately add flour mixture in two parts and pumpkin puree in one, beginning and ending with flour mixture; mix just until combined (do not over mix)
  3. Drop dough by heaping tablespoons onto two baking sheets, about 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake until puffed and edges are golden, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating sheets once during baking. Immediately transfer cookies to wire racks, and cool completely.
  4. When cookies have cooled, set them (still on rack) over a baking sheet or waxed paper. Place chocolate in a ziplock bag and put in a bowl of hot water and allow the chocolate to melt. Cut a hole in the corner of the bag and pipe chocolate over cookies.

These cookies are fluffy and taste sort of like a muffin top! Bonus, one cookie has 61% of your daily need for vitamin A.
