CINNAMON APPLE DELIGHT



Cinnamon Apple Delight image

I created this recipe as a quick fix for something sweet and protein-filled for post-gym workouts...eventually the kids started taking it away from me and eating it themselves! Substitute what you like for a sweetener...I've used stevia, aspartame, and agave nectar, all with success. Greek yogurt takes some getting used to -- it's not for everyone!

BAKED APPLE DELIGHT



Baked Apple Delight image

From the website SuperFoodsRX. This delicious, healthy dessert not only tastes incredible - the entire ingredients list are all "superfoods"! This recipe is rich in so many nutrients that it would be too long to name them all here ;) but they include fiber, ascorbic acid, vitamin E, magnesium, potassium, calcium, folate, polyphenols, salicylates and oligosaccharides (detoxifying and cholesterol-lowering). The original recipe says that this dish can be served warm or cold, but it's SOO much better warm IMO. Great for those cold winter nights. Serve with a nice mug of warmed vanilla soy milk topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon.

APPLE DELIGHT COOKIES



Apple Delight Cookies image

I stumbled on these while trying to make the perfect shortbread and thumbprint cookie. I used apple jelly only because I had run out of raspberry and strawberry preserves. The apple were the best ones!

Provided by Kerry Newton @the4rojos

Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup(s) butter, softened
1/2 cup(s) powdered sugar
1/2 cup(s) brown sugar, light
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon(s) almond extract
2 1/2 cup(s) flour
1/2 cup(s) apple jelly
1/4 cup(s) powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cream together the butter, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, the brown sugar, egg and extracts.
  • Add in flour.
  • Drop by full tablespoons onto baking stone or greased cookie sheet.
  • Press into the middle of each cookie to form a tiny cup for the jelly.
  • Add jelly to the center of each cookie.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until cookies just begin to turn golden.
  • Once cooled completely, dust with remaining powdered sugar.

Tips:

  • Use a microplane or fine grater to zest the lemon. This will help release the flavorful oils from the lemon peel.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 1 hour before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use a tablespoon to measure out the dough. Be sure to level off the dough with a knife or spatula.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown. Over-baked cookies will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container.

Conclusion:

Apple Delight Cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their soft and chewy texture, sweet and tangy flavor, and beautiful presentation, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give Apple Delight Cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
