Salted caramel anything is one of my favorite parts of fall.

Add in apples and sweet cookie dough and I’m all yours.

That’s why these Salted Caramel Apple Cookies go like crazy in my house and are one of the most requested cookies no matter what time of year!

The cookies are a perfect accompaniment to a unit study on apples, when making apple crafts, or if you’re making other apple recipes (like this delicious slow cooker apple butter that my cousin Amy makes!).

They’re also great for cookie exchanges during the holidays!

No matter when you make them, they’re sure to be a hit!

Enjoy!
