Notes

I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

Apple Cookies

Apple Cookies

1/4 cup butter -- at room temperature
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 egg
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1 cup chopped peeled apples -- any baking apple
1/2 cup butterscotch or white chocolate baking chips
1 cup chopped walnuts

Glaze

2 tablespoons butter -- melted
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
2 cups powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in cream and egg.

In another bowl, combine dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture. Fold in apples, baking chips and walnuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheets.

Bake in preheated oven about 10 minutes. Do not overbake. Remove from oven and let sit on cookie sheet about 1 minute, then remove to wire racks to cool completely.

While cookies cool, make the glaze by combining all ingredients and mix until smooth.
