- For the Cookies:
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF (190ºC). Line a Baking Sheet with Parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice and baking powder. Set aside.
- In another mixing bowl beat the 2 eggs and the sugar on medium speed until lemon colored and foamy, about 5 minutes. Add the olive oil and vanilla and mix until fully incorporated. Add the flour mixture and mix until fully absorbed. The dough will be rather soft.
- For the Filling:
- In another bowl, combine all the filling ingredients and mix until smooth.
- Flour your hands well. Take a rounded tablespoon of the dough and flatten it into a disk.
- Add about 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie filling to the center and fold the dough around it to seal.
- Place the cookies about 2 inches (5 cm) apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes.
- While the cookies bake, make the glaze.
- To make the Glaze:
- Whisk together all the glaze ingredients and while the cookies are still hot from the oven dip the tops into the glaze.
- Place the cookies on a wire rack and decorate with seasonal sprinkles as desired
