This is such a delicious spice cookie, and they manage to disappear so quickly. The original recipe alone is aces but I modified it to my taste. I'm not a big fan of nuts or rasins in my cookies so I omitted those ingredients and added a cup or two of dried cranberries, added a bit more apple and it was soooo good! Adding more apple and cranberries does make it a hassle to roll into balls, it's a tad sticky and wants to fall apart, so that is a pain, but once you get it, it's worth the hassle. So moist! I was making these for Christmas, so I made the icing with eggnog in the place of milk and my, my, was that a hit!

I was pleasantly surprised by this cookie. I used splenda brown sugar, allspice instead of cloves (I didnt have any) and a little extra butter (the batter was not coming together) and the end result was delicious. A fluffy healthier cookie. Thank you!

Apple Hermits. I was out of brown sugar so I made my own with the same amount of white sugar plus about 2 tablespoons of molasses. These were pretty good.

AMAZING!!! This is like easy apply pie indulgence! I used half whole wheat and half all purpose flour, half brown sugar and half splenda. Next time I will try apply sauce instead of butter to make them healthier. MMMMm mmmm!

I omitted the nuts and raisins because of my personal tastes and wish I would have thought to FINELY chop or even grate the apples. The bigger pieces in the cookies were kind of hard to manage when it came to shaping the dough. The cookies were SO moist once they were baked that they really should be eaten within a day or two. It's a yummy fall recipe!

These are really tasty! I ran out of walnuts at about 1/2 cup, so I added 1/2 cu pecans. I also omitted the raisins, and following the recs of other reviewers, I added about 2 tablespoons of milk and about a tablespoon of apple cider. they were a hit!

I have made these cookies several times in the last few weeks since I discovered them. They have been met with rave reviews every time. The only thing I did differently was add 1-2 T milk to the batter when mixing the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients. It helped them to combine a little easier. Great recipe! Tastes like fall!

I am allergic to walnuts and we don't like raisins much in our house, so I left both of those out, bulked up the apples and substituted 1c. of oats for half the flour. Also found the dough to be a little dry so I added 1/2c. of apple juice to moisten it up. Turned out great!

These came out GREAT! Just made them and my house smells so good :) I didn't have cloves or nutmeg, so used pumpkin pie spice instead, really nice flavour! Pre-soaked my raisins and didnt have nuts. I think next time I would put more cinnamon though. GREAT RECIPE!!

Very good basic recipe, and it allows you to do a lot of customizing. I grated 2 small apples instead of chopping them, so I didn't have big chunks or any weird texture. I added a handful of oatmeal to help with the extra moisture. Instead of the glaze, I added 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips. I probably won't do that next time; no need for extra sweetness.

WOWsers!!!!! These are awesome! Moist and spiced just right. I baked for only 12 minutes and they came out perfectly. They truly don't need the glaze, as they are quite sweet without it. I baked them on foil, shiny side DOWN (as always) and after they cooled, I had only to slide my hand under the foil and peel it gently away from the cookie (as opposed to peeling the cookie off the foil, which you don't want to do because these are delicate and will break) and they released beautifully. I had a big bag of Craisins that had seen better days, so before I began making the dough, I put a heaping cup of them into very hot water and let them stay for about 20 minutes. They add a lot to the cookies, as I'm sure raisins do, as well. I chopped the apple finely, as many reviews said that they found them to not look very pretty, and that's probably because of large apple chunks sticking out here and there. These look fit for the cover of Bon Appetit. Thank you!

WOW! Yummy!!! I had my own alterations since I didn't have all the ingredients. I used white chocolate chips and apples only (didn't have raisins or nuts LOL) and I added 1/2 a tsp of ginger just because I felt like it... I also used a cup of wheat and a cup of white flour...but that's all the changes I made and I will be making these again and again and again!!! Thank you!
