Caramel Apple Cider Cookies image

I adapted this recipe from The Cooking Photographer's "Caramel Stuffed Apple Cider Cookies." (http://www.thecookingphotographer.com/2009/11/caramel-stuffed-apple-cider-cookies.html) I don't like Kraft caramels, so I made the homemade caramel found at http://www.giverslog.com/?p=3168 to drizzle over the cookies. Amazing fall...

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 c butter, unsalted
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 tsp salt
1 box alpine spiced apple cider instant original drink mix
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon, ground
3 c all purpose flour

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Cream butter, sugars, salt, and the 10 packets of apple cider mix until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, mix baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and flour. Add to butter mixture and stir until combined.
  • 3. Using a small cookie scoop, drop 1 1/2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes, rotating baking sheets halfway through baking time. Allow to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before removing to cooling racks.
  • 4. Drizzle with melted caramel. (I make my own using the recipe at http://www.giverslog.com/?p=3168. I cook it as directed to the caramel apple dipping stage.)
