- Preheat oven to 425 degrees (F).
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

- Cut in butter until it is about the size of peas.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture.
- In another medium bowl, combine the wet ingredients (pumpkin, heavy cream and egg) then pour into the well and fold them into the flour mixture with a wooden spoon, taking care not to over beat.
- Using a large cookie baller (mine is about 3 tablespoons), scoop the dough onto the parchment lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes, until lightly golden on the bottom.
- Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool slightly while you prepare the glaze.
- Combine all of the glaze ingredients (1 cup confectioners sugar, 2 Tablespoons heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, pinch of nutmeg and cloves) in a small bowl, adding cream or powdered sugar to get the consistency of glaze you want.
- Glaze the scones once they have cooled slightly.
