Amazing Apple Pie Cookies are such a wonderful treat for fall. It will soon be Thanksgiving and these Amazing Apple Pie Cookies would be great in place of a slice of apple pie.
I like to put the pie filling on about 1 hour before serving, otherwise it makes your cookie go very soft. Also for an added bonus, add a squirt or dollop of whipped cream and just a sprinkle of nutmeg if you like.
