Caramel Apple Snickerdoodle Cookie Cups

This week, I whipped up my new favorite dessert – caramel apple snickerdoodle cookie cups! To make these, use sugar cookie dough rolled in cinnamon sugar and pressed into a muffin tin to create a cookie cups. You then fill them with apple pie filling – premade or homemade will work.  Cook for 12 minutes and then drizzle with caramel sauce.  These are the perfect fall treat! Beware though, you aren’t going to want to share these, they are too good!

Apple Cookie Cups

This recipe makes about 12 servings but it can always be doubled if you want more. To avoid the cookie cups getting soggy from the filling, I suggest eating within about 2 days.
