Step 1

Cream butter or margarine with sugar. Add salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, coriander, cloves and egg; blend well. Stir in flour with baking soda and milk until blended. Stir in the apples. Drop by small spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 400° for 10 to 12 min. or until cookies are firm when touched but not overly browned.

Allow glaze to set before storing in an airtight container.
