Apple Pie Sugar Cookie Cups Recipes

APPLE PIE COOKIE CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325F degrees. Grease 2 muffin trays with non-stick cookie spray.
• In a large bowl beat the butter and sugars together until fluffy (about 2 minutes).
• Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.
• With the mixer on low, beat in the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Then mix in the oats.
• Spoon about 3 tablespoons of batter into the bottom of each muffin cavity. Press the dough down into the bottom and up along the sides to form a little bowl shape. If the dough is too sticky to work with, place it in the fridge for 15-20 minutes.
• Bake the cookie cups in the oven for 15-18 minutes or until they're just starting to get golden around the edges. If they puff up in the middle that's ok.
• Remove the pan from the oven. Lightly grease a spoon or the bottom of a shot glass. Press it down into the middle of each cookie cup to form a little bowl shape again. Trace around the edges of each cup with a thin sharp knife.
• Cool the cookie cups for about 20 minutes, then pry them out of the muffin tin using a thin knife.
• In a large bowl toss the chopped apples with the sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg and cornstarch.
• Melt the butter in large saucepan or skillet over medium heat.
• Add in the apple mixture and gently stir. As the apples begin to bake, pour in the water. Cook for 5-10 minutes or until the apples are starting to soften and the mixture caramelizes.
• Spoon the apple pie filling into each cookie cup.
• Serve warm or at room temperature. Cookie cups can be warmed up int he microwave for about 20 seconds before enjoying.

EASY APPLE PIE COOKIE CUPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Grease 24 regular-size muffin cups with shortening; lightly flour.
• In large bowl, mix cookie mix, flour, butter and egg with spoon until soft dough forms. Measure 2 cups of the dough, and set aside remaining dough. Using the 2 cups of dough, firmly press a heaping tablespoon of dough into bottom of each muffin cup.
• Chop apple pie filling into small pieces; place a generous 2 teaspoons pie filling in center of each cookie cup. On floured surface, roll remaining dough 1/8 inch thick. Using small 1 to 1 1/2-inch cookie cutter, cut small shapes of your choice. If necessary, press any leftover scraps together, and reroll on floured surface to make total of 24 cutouts. Place one cutout on top of apple pie filling in each cookie cup.
• In small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle on tops of cutouts. Bake 14 to 17 minutes or until edges of cookies are deep golden brown. Cool 10 minutes in pan on cooling rack. Run metal spatula around edge of each cookie cup to loosen; cool in pan 20 minutes. Remove cookies from muffin cups to cooling rack to cool completely.

APPLE PIE SUGAR COOKIE CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven 375 degrees. Lightly spray a 12-24 mini muffin pan with cooking spray.
• Follow the instructions on the sugar cookie package for drop cookies.
• Roll dough into small balls. Place into muffin pan. We used dough that was cut into each cookie size and just rolled each cookie size into a ball.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Immediately remove from oven and press a shot glass into the cookie to make the opening. We sprayed the shot glass with cooking oil every few cups.
• Place cookie cups on a cooling rack and let cool.
• Fill the cups with apple pie filling and top with cinnamon.
• Drizzle with icing if desired.
• Add a little bit of water to the powdered sugar and stir. Add water a little bit at a time until it reaches your preferred consistency. If you like it thick, use less water. If you like your icing thing, use a bit more.
