Caramel Apple Cider Cookies Recipe
Ingredients
- 15.25 oz. Box Betty Crocker French Vanilla Cake Mix
- 4 Packets Spiced Apple Cider Packets
- 3/4 tsp. Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Melted Butter, Canola Oil, or Vegetable Oil
- 2 Large Eggs
- 1 cup Kraft Caramel Pieces {about 20 caramels} – one 11 oz. bag will be more than enough
Instructions
- Unwrap caramels, and cut each caramel into 8 tiny pieces {this will make them similar to the size of chocolate chips}
- Set 1/2 cup of caramel pieces aside for later.
- In large mixing bowl, whisk together dry cake mix, apple cider mix powder, and ground cinnamon, until well combined.
- Then add in butter {or oil} and eggs, and mix with mixer on medium speed until well combined.
- Fold in 1/2 cup of caramel pieces, and transfer dough to refrigerator for 1 hour to chill.
- After dough has chilled, preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Roll cookie dough into small balls, and place a few caramel pieces from the remaining 1/2 cup of caramels on top of each dough ball.
- Then place dough balls on parchment paper lined cookie sheets. {trust me… the parchment will help prevent the caramel pieces from sticking like glue to your cookie sheet} 🙂
- Bake for 8 – 10 minutes, or until done.Â
- Allow cookies cool on cookie sheet for 1 – 2 minutes, then promptly transfer to cooling racks to let them finish cooling there. ENJOY!
- Storage Tip: These cookies will stay fresh covered in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
