Ingredients
- 3/4 c. unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 c. granulated sugar
- 1/2 c. dark brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1/2 tsp. caramel flavoring
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
- 1 medium Granny Smith apple, diced {about 1 cup}
- 1 c. almond and pecan pieces
- 1 tbs. dark brown sugar
- 1/2 can Dulce de Leche, or about 7 ounces caramel sauce
- 3 sections each of dark and white almond bark
Preparation
Step 1
Cream together butter and sugars. Add the egg and flavorings and mix well. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside. Use one tablespoon of the flour mixture and toss with the diced apples until they are well coated. Mix in the flour until it is well incorporated, then add the apples. The dough will be sticky but firm.
Next combine the mixed nuts with a tablespoon of brown sugar. Drop dough into the nut mixture by the tablespoon and roll until well coated with nuts.
Bake the cookies at 325 degrees for 15-17 minutes. When you remove them from the oven use a cookie scoop or spoon to make an impression in the middle of the warm cookies.
After cooling, use a piping bag to fill the cookies with caramel. Drizzle the cookies with white and dark chocolate.
Makes 3 1/2 dozen cookies
