Glazed Apple Cookies are AMAZING!!! They are unbelievably scrumptious, soft, gooey, and chewy! My family devoured quite a few while they were still warm and it was extremely difficult to walk away! They have apples and raisins in them, so they are good for you, right? Of course! I like to take a plate of treats across the street to our friends and they were so glad I took over these cookies. They LOVED them! Glazed Apple Cookies are a perfect fall treat and I will be making them several times this season!

- Mix well
- Drop batter (from about a big tablespoon) 2 inches apart onto a lightly greased baking sheet
