I added a half tsp. of nutmeg and shredded half the apple and chopped the other half. The cookies were okay but nothing super exciting.

Excellent cookies!Yummy........ I did follow someones suggestion and I used nutmeg, allspice and cardamon along with the cinnamon. I also did not grated the apple just chopped fine. Made a thick glaze with the powdered sugar and milk, but added a little fresh ground cinnamon. I will be making these again.

These are tasty, though they didn't knock my socks off. I was expecting a chewier, more appley cookie. Still good though!:)

I love this recipe but did a little tweaking for my needs. I'm a busy gal with my 2 month old daughter so I decided to make these into bars instead just because it was faster for me. I also added a second apple, 2 more eggs, and a package of cheesecake pudding mix. Put it into my 9x13 and baked at 350 for about 50 minutes or until done in the middle. I let it cool and drizzled on some glazemade of milk vanilla butter and vanilla. These don't last long!!!

Delicious, delicious, delicious. I took others advice and added allspice, and a little extra cinnamon. These have a true guilt-free feeling to them.

So yummy. The icing makes all the difference. I did chop my apples into very small dice instead of shredding them.

Love that this recipe uses fresh apples. It's cakey and not sweet at all.

I'm surprised at all the reviews saying these were dry, as mine came out ultra-moist, more like a muffin than a cookie. They were tasty but I was looking for a chewier cookie, less cakey. I'm in Germany though so I think the flour and butter are a bit different and that may have been what caused it. Next time I'll halve the butter I think. Good overall recipe, I did add nutmeg and had a heavy hand with the cinnamon, but I could've gone for even more spice. I didn't glaze them as I found them to be plenty sweet without (but I also used a very sweet and juicy apple).
