Inside-Out Chocolate Pumpkin Cookies

I saw this recipe on a blog that I follow...and had to rush to the kitchen and try them out!! Pretty good, but the filling is DE-LISH!!! It only made about 7 (they're pretty big, but it would have been hard to make them any smaller and still be able to fill them)

3/4 cup flour
6 Tbsp plus 1 tsp cocoa powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp maple syrup or agave
2 tbsp nondairy milk (I'm sure regular milk would be just dandy)
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
3 tbsp plus 1 tsp oil

3 tbsp pureed pumpkin
3 tbsp nut butter of choice (I used PB)
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 packet stevia (or 1/2 tbsp sugar)
1/8 tsp pure vanilla extract

1. Combine the first 5 ingredients, and mix well.
2. Add ingredients 6-9 and mix again to form dough.
3. In a separate bowl, combine all other ingredients to make the filling.
4. Using about a heaping tablespoon of dough, roll into a ball and then flatten. Place a little scoop of the filling in the center and then fold up the sides of the dough. Form into a ball.


5. Bake at 330 degrees for about 10 minutes. They should be a little undercooked when you take them out.
6. Let stand about 10 minutes.
