APPLE-WALNUT COOKIES

Apple-Walnut Cookies image

I've gotten into the habit of baking a dozen or so cookies to eat now and then freezing what remains for another day. Whether you're having a dinner party, last-minute guests, or just want a spur-of-the-moment treat, always having homemade cookies on hand--instead of a box of store-bought cookies that will be stale within a week--is just about the coziest thing ever.
