APPLE CIDER COOKIES



Apple Cider Cookies image

Sweet cider isn't just for drinking. As anyone who's ever had an apple cider doughnut knows, it's just as delicious in desserts, including these cookies! From their apple-studded tops all the way through their chewy interiors, these cookies are infused with fruit flavor and spicy-sweet cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. So, they're just the treat you'll want to nibble while standing along the sidelines rooting on the school team. And since a batch makes 40 cookies, you'll have enough to share with your fellow fans. All you need to get started is 20 minutes, Betty's sugar cookie mix and a package of apple cider mix.

Time 2h15m

Yield about 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups apple cider
1 cinnamon stick
4 whole allspice berries
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
2/3 cup confectioners' sugar
Coarse gold sugar, for decorating

Steps:

  • Bring the apple cider, cinnamon stick and allspice to a simmer in a small pot over medium-high heat. Cook until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 12 minutes; set aside to cool. Remove the cinnamon stick and allspice berries.
  • Whisk the flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the egg and half of the cider mixture and beat until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Form the dough into 3/4-inch balls and arrange 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until golden brown, 9 to 11 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.
  • Make the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar and the remaining cider mixture in a small bowl until smooth. Spread the glaze on the cookies and top with the coarse sugar. Let set 30 minutes.
