APPLE CRISP COOKIE CUPS

I am eternally grateful to friends and family members who help me come up with recipe ideas. Sometimes I have a list of things I want to bake, but inevitably that runs out and then, in a panic, I ask people for suggestions.

The idea for these Apple Crisp Cookie Cups came from my friend Sharai who loved my Caramel Cookie Cups so much that she wanted to come up with alternatives that I could make and she could eat. Who am I to say no to that?

I know apples and apple pie are technically more of a fall dessert, but really there’s no bad time for apple pie anything. These apple crisp cookie cups are really simple to make. I used my favourite Oatmeal Cookie recipe, minus the chocolate chips as the “crust”.
