We love any thing apple! These mulled cider cookies sound so yummy. I think all of the spices in the cookies take the recipe over the top. I will have to give these a try. Thanks so much for being a part of the Fill The Cookie Jar group! You always bring such yummy cookies to the party!
My family isn’t big on apples, but they enjoyed these.
Well these luscious sounding cookies just scream fall!!
Even if the weather isn’t Fall-like these cookies had me hoping. 🙂
What a delightful cookie for fall! I can’t wait to make these!
They were quite tasty.
I’ve never had a cookie with apple cider. I love both cider and cookies, so I can’t wait to give your recipe a try.
I hadn’t had anything like this before either. Cooking down the cider intensifies the flavors so you can really taste it when the cookies are done.
