Yield 22

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 egg
2 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Dash of salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon butter
1 medium apple, peeled and finely chopped (1 cup)
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup mascarpone cheese or 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 2 large cookie sheets with cooking spray; set aside.
  • In large bowl, beat 3/4 cup butter and 1 cup brown sugar with electric mixer on medium speed 3 minutes or until well blended. Scrape side of bowl. Add corn syrup and egg. Beat 2 minutes or until blended.
  • In medium bowl, beat flour, baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, the ginger and salt with wire whisk. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture and beat on low speed just until dry ingredients are incorporated.
  • Place granulated sugar on plate. Shape 1 level measuring tablespoon dough into 1-inch ball and roll in sugar. Place on cookie sheet. Press dough with palm of hand until just flattened and about 2 inches in diameter. Repeat with remaining dough, making an additional 43 balls, and place them about 1 1/2 inches apart on cookie sheets.
  • Bake about 15 minutes or until golden. Cool on cookie sheet 1 to 2 minutes before removing to wire rack. Cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, in 8-inch skillet, heat 1 teaspoon butter over medium-low heat until melted. Add apple, 1 tablespoon brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until apple softens. Set aside to cool completely, about 15 minutes. In small bowl, mix cooled apple mixture and mascarpone.
  • Spread 1 level tablespoon filling over bottom of 1 cookie. Top with second cookie. Repeat with remaining filling and cookies. Store in refrigerator.

I had some trouble getting the cookies to hold together. I think I might have needed to chill the dough for longer before baking.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time I make them.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I was happy to find a recipe for apple pie cookies that didn't contain any nuts.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover apples. I always have a few apples lying around, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.
