CARAMEL APPLE COOKIES RECIPE |
Apple seems to be a taste which will disappear within the bustle of the pumpkin dessert this point of year. do not forget apples. Amazing apples! and do not miss this candied apple cake, you guys. they're so, very tasty.
One important tip when whipping up this massive batch of candied apple cakes is about frosting. The Frosting found out very quickly, so I froze 3 or 4 cakes at a time then sprinkled with pecans in order that they would stick.
You have to figure in small batches, otherwise your pecan won't adhere well to frosting.
