Preparation time: 20 minutes | Cooking Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 35 minutes | Serves: 12 cookies

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into cubes
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 2 apples, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Slowly add the cold water and mix until a dough forms. Divide the dough in half and wrap each half in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix the diced apples, granulated sugar, and cinnamon until well combined.
  5. Roll out one half of the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut out circles.
  6. Place a spoonful of the apple mixture in the center of each circle. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, forming a cookie shape.
  7. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack. In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar with a little water to make a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies.
  9. Enjoy your delicious apple pie cookies!
