Inside: A delicious caramel apple cookies recipe that is sure to become a family favorite.
As soon as Fall rolls around I start craving all things apple-flavored, including apple cookies.
After our glazed soft apple cookies recipe was such a hit last Fall, I wanted to share another great apple cookie recipe this year.
Caramel Apple Cookies
You are going to love these rich apple cookies.
Packed with apple chunks, caramel chips, and chocolate chips, I could eat an entire batch of these crisp and chewy apple cookies.
Taking only about 20 minutes to make, it really doesn’t get much easier as far as from-scratch cookies are concerned.
And with chocolate chips added to the batter, these thick caramel apple cookies have a tasty turtle vibe. Oh how I love the combination of apples, chocolate, and caramel — so good!
Serve with a glass of crockpot apple cider or a hot caramel macchiato for a real treat!

Can sliced apple be used in place of dried apple?
I have not tried for this recipe but I do use fresh apples in these soft apple cookies
Can sea salt and caramel chips be substituted for caramel chips?
Yes that should be fine!
