They are super yummy and taste just like a
caramel apple! The caramel center is best when slightly warm and gooey, so either eat them warm from the oven, or you may want to pop them in the microwave for about 10 seconds.
Caramel Apple Cider Cookies
Recipe adapted from The Girl Who Ate Everything
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened (2 sticks)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (7.4 oz) box Alpine Spiced Apple Cider Instant Original Drink Mix (10 packets – found next to hot chocolate mix)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 (14 ounce) bag of Kraft chewy caramels
Directions:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened (2 sticks)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (7.4 oz) box Alpine Spiced Apple Cider Instant Original Drink Mix (10 packets – found next to hot chocolate mix)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 (14 ounce) bag of Kraft chewy caramels
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper (you need this so that the caramel doesn’t stick to the bottom of your cookie sheet).
- In a small bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder and cinnamon.
- With an electric mixer, cream together butter, sugar, salt and all 10 packages of apple cider drink mix powder, until light and fluffy.
- Beat in eggs, one at a time.
- Add vanilla and mix well.
- Gradually add flour mixture to butter/egg mixture. Mix until just combined.
- Scoop out cookie dough ball about the size of a walnut (about 2 tablespoons).
- Flatten the ball of dough slightly in the palm of your hand. Press the unwrapped caramel into the center of your dough and seal the dough around it, covering it completely.
- Shape the dough into a ball, and place on parchment covered cookie sheets about 3 inches apart.
- Bake 11-14 minutes, or until very lightly browned around the edges. Once the cookies are done, carefully slide the parchment off of the baking sheet onto the counter.
- Eat warm from the oven or slightly warmed in the microwave.
