We eat a clean, healthy diet most of the time but some family members enjoy these nostalgic treats now and then

Glazed Apple Cookies
These cookies are especially wonderful because they make me think of my Grandma Ann whenever I make them. They are a family favorite and we eat a batch so quickly I have to promise to make more as soon as they're gone.
Glazed Apple Cookies
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. cloves
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup chopped apple
1 cup chopped raisins
1/4 cup milk
Cream butter, brown sugar and egg, add 1/2 of dry ingredients, nuts and raisins. Blend in milk and add remaining dry ingredients and apples.
Drop by teaspoonful on greased cookie sheet (I use a silpat)
Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes.
Vanilla Glaze
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 Tbsp. light cream or milk
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. vanilla
1 Tbsp. butter
Mix together and drizzle over cookies. I like to wait till the cookies cool off to glaze and the best way to do it is to mix it all in a quart size baggie and cut off the corner to control how much and where the glaze goes. My Grandma used margarine but I only use butter when I bake. This recipe makes about 52 cookies
