Ingredients

Servings

Cookies

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 box Instant Apple Cider Drink Mix 10 packets, such as Alpine
  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 1/2 cups flour
  • 12 caramels unwrapped, cut in half

Sugar Roll

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice

Instructions

  1. Sift together the baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and flour. Set aside.
  2. Cream together the butter and sugar and then blend in the salt and vanilla. Slowly, one packet at a time to avoid an apple cider dust bomb, blend in Apple Cider Drink Mix packets (I'm telling you this from experience). Lastly, mix in the eggs.
  3. Half and cup at a time, add in the dry ingredient mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 1-2 hours.
  4. Unwrap all of the caramels and put in a small bowl, cutting in half using kitchen shears. Line the cookie sheets with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  5. In a small bowl combine the sugar and pumpkin pie spice for the cookie roll.
  6. Spoon out approximately 1 tablespoon of cookie dough, roll into a ball and smash flat in the palm of your hand. Place 1/2 caramel in the center and roll tightly around to prevent any holes. Roll the cookie dough ball in the spiced sugar and place 2 inches apart on the lined cookie sheet.
  7. Bake for 11-14 minutes, cookies will look slightly undercooked. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
  8. If you've tried this recipe, come back and let us know if you liked them in the comments or star ratings!
