    Mulled Apple Cider Cookies: A Sweet Taste of Autumn

    September 7, 2017 Filed Under: Cookies, Desserts

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe
    Mulled Apple Cider Cookies take one of the best drinks of Autumn and turn it into a soft iced cookie.

    These Mulled Apple Cider Cookies are the perfect Autumn treats, combining apple cider, cinnamon and allspice in a sweet little cookie.

    This recipe takes a bit longer than some cookie recipes because you start by cooking the apple cider with warm spices until it is nice and thick. Instead of vanilla extract or other flavorings, the apple cider syrup is the flavor base for the cookie and the icing.

    The result is an amazing burst of apples and spices in every bite!

      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!

      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.
