Mimi didn’t make a lot of cookies any time but at Christmas and New Year’s. I make cookies as often as I can. She really would have enjoyed this apple cider version. They are the perfect fall treats for those that aren’t as into to pumpkin spice. Brandon requested these and since its my birthday and I said I would spend the whole day baking, I’m going to share this memorable recipe with you.
Ingredients
3/4 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 large egg
1/3 cup apple cider
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
For coating
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Cream butter and sugars together. Add egg and whip until fluffy. Add apple cider and vanilla bean paste mix well. Finally add and mix flour, salt, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda; mix until incorporated. Chill dough for at least 30 minutes. Preheat over to 350 degrees. Using a cookie scoop, scoop and form into balls. Coat each ball in cinnamon and sugar mixture. Bake 10-12 minutes. Cookies will spread a little but not much.
