Caramel Apple Cookies
It looks like a caramel apple but it's really a chocolate chip cookie. You can coat the caramel with your favorite type of nut, sprinkles or mini chips. I am often asked to bring these to parties.—Tammy Daniels, Batavia, Ohio

Reviews
I've made these several times-excellent!
Very bland and the caramel never set. I am usually pleased with TOH recipes. I checked and did every thing right. Don't know.
These are absolutely adorable! We made them with a sugar cookie dough instead of chocolate chip. My kids loved helping to make these cookies to take to school.
these are adorable both inside and outside - this is the best thing I've seen in a loooong time - awesome.
Love how cute this recipe turns out. Fun little balls of shortbread-style cookie, dressed up to look like caramel apples are great to serve at any fall themed gathering.
