Caramel Apple Cookies

These sweet cinnamon and apple cookies are perfect for Fall or Halloween parties or get togethers, but personally I like to make them all year round! If you are also a lover of all things apple and cinnamon, you will want to make them all the time too!

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, break up cookie dough. Stir or knead in flour, apple and apple pie spice until well blended. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.

Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, in small microwavable bowl, microwave caramels and half-and-half uncovered on High 30 to 60 seconds, stirring once, until caramels are melted. Drizzle over tops of cookies; sprinkle with pecans. Store covered in refrigerator.
