Caramel Apple Spice Cookies
These Caramel Apple Cookies are made up of a simple Apple Spice cookie topped with caramel frosting.
Ingredients:
- 1 – Spice Cake Mix
- 2 Cups Apple Sauce
- 1/4 Cup Butter
- 1/4 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1/8 Cup Milk
- 1 1/4 Cup Powdered Sugar
Making the Cookies
First, you’re going to make the cookies. Mix together a box of spice cake mix and apple sauce.
Then scoop the dough onto a greased cookie sheet. The cookies will expand slightly but stay pretty much the shape they are when you put them on the cookie sheet.
Bake the cookies at 350° for 10-12 minutes. Move the Cookies to a wire rack to cool.
While the cookies are cooling it’s time to mix up the Caramel Frosting.
Caramel Frosting
Mix together the butter, brown sugar and milk in a saucepan. Stirring occasionally so the sugar doesn’t burn.
Bring mixture to a boil. Then remove the pot from heat.
Add the powdered sugar whisking it well to get rid of any lumps.
While the caramel frosting is still warm frost your cookies. I prefer to drizzle the frosting over the cookies so that they have a caramel taste but aren’t overly sweet.
The frosting recipe makes the perfect amount to drizzle over your cookies. If you frost them you might need to make a little more frosting depending on how thickly you apply the caramel.
That’s it you now have some delicious caramel apple spice cookies to enjoy this fall!
