These apple pie cookies are my favorite! They are a take on my cookie cups but you don’t need a muffin pan.

    Combine dry ingredients into a bowl and fold into wet ingredients. Place dough in fridge for an hour to chill.

    Remove cookie dough from fridge and scoop 8 medium size cookie dough balls on to a lined extra large baking sheet. Using a tablespoon, press circle in the middle of cookie.

    Bake cookies for 15-20 minutes. While baking cookies, add apples to a small sauce pan on medium-low heat, with a splash of lemon juice and let them simmer (appx 5-8 minutes).

    Remove cookies from oven and let them sit for a few minutes. Take a round cookie cutter and in a circle motion round out your cookies.

    Make your drizzle by combining powder sugar and heavy cream and place in a piping bag.

    Assemble cookie by placing a small spoonful of apple filling in the center of the cookie, drizzle on icing and optional whip-cream and dusting of cinnamon if desired!
