|uper easy and oh so yummy! Everyone loved it! I did notice it takes a little longer to brown and it still didn't get too brown. I'm assuming that's due to the cider. Also, I didn't peal the apples per Ben's request. I will next time. Peels were fine, I'd just prefer w/o them. ENJOY! Oh, and serve warm w/ some fresh whipped cream or ice cream!

Applesauce Cookies
Feeling a little blue today, poured myself a steaming cup of my spiced tea and wondered what would go good w/ it... which lead me to this very simple applesauce cookie recipe. Of course I found the recipe but made my own little changes to them. So here's my version...
2 3/4 c all-purpose flour
1 1/2 c packed brown sugar
1 c chunky applesauce
1/2 c butter
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking ssoda
1/4 tsp ground cloves
2 eggs
1 c carmel chips
(1 c raisins and nuts optional)
1) In large bowl, mix all ingredients w/ spoon. (If dough is soft, cover & refrigerate.)
2) Heat oven to 375d. On ungreased cookie sheet, drop dough by rounded teaspoons about 2 inches apart.
3) Bake 8 to 10 min or until almost no indentation remains when touched. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 min.
4)Sprinkle powdered sugar on top right before serving.
Enjoy.
