When Fall is beginning with it’s cool and crisp breeze and the leaves are starting to change, I can not help but dream about apple cider. The warm apple flavor makes me feel so cozy. I then begin to enjoy all Fall has to offer from campfires to tick-or-treaters! Then there is this beauty of a cookie that is the perfect composition of the changing seasons. It really is Fall perfection in every bite. The unmistakable flavor of apple cider covering a delicious and chewy soft caramel center. I have adapted this recipe from my Cake Mix Cookies. This wonderful cookie really does make it impossible to have just one!

Notes
Nursing tip:
Speaking of only having one cookie, if you have to grace the doors of an Emergency Room don’t expect to tell your reason for coming only once. If you are lucky you will only have to state it three to four times. The process starts with registration, then a triage nurse, your regular room nurse, then provider. As a Nurse Practitioner I am never surprised to get a completely different story than registration or other nurses; however, it is entertaining for us to compare notes!
