Apple Snickerdoodles

Apple Snickerdoodles are the fall version of classic, soft and chewy snickerdoodle cookies. They’re crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, and loaded with fresh apples & white chocolate chunks!

When chilly days start, make a batch (or two) of these Apple Snickerdoodles, grab a caramel latte and enjoy cozy fall afternoons.

These yummy White chocolate Apple Snickerdoodles could be great Halloween treat, too.

I love good old snickerdoodles! They are crunchy on the outside, and when you take a bite they are soft and chewy on the inside, loaded with cinnamon sugar flavor, but …Even when something is already good enough I always have to experiment with new flavors.

When fall baking season starts pumpkin and apples are always the first choices.
Since I already tried Pumpkin Snickerdoodles with Cheesecake Filling I wanted to try something new this year. And that’s how I came up with these yummy Apple Snickerdoodles.

Apple would be fine addition to snickerdoodle cookies. Apples match perfectly with cinnamon sugar, but I couldn’t stop myself with just one addition. I was thinking to add caramel too, but since my last recipe Caramel Apple Pie Bombs had combination of caramel and apple pie filling with cinnamon-sugar coating on the outside, I’d become a little boring.

And the next best thing is chocolate. Everything just taste better with chocolate!!! But milk or dark chocolate might be overpowering and won’t let apple tastes enough so white chocolate is much better option. I used chopped white chocolate not chocolate chips. I simply like to find real chocolate chunk into my cookie, but you can use white chocolate chips if you prefer.

It’s an extra step to chop the chocolate into small chunks, but it’s totally worth it. I also did it for my Strawberry Cookies, and they were SO GOOD!!!

Don’t let these white chocolate chips you see on top of the cookies confuse you, they are here purely for decoration. I like to press a few chips into the top of freshly baked cookies. The chips stick onto hot cookies and make them look so pretty. But the real star here is white chocolate chopped into small chunks and fold into the cookie dough. It puts these yummy, soft and chewy Apple Snickerdoodles over the top.

If you like the idea of apple flavored cookies you could also try my Apple Pie Cookies. And as Halloween inspired dessert recipe I suggest you to check Mummy Pumpkin Cookies or my Spider Cookies, or these awesome Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies by Happy Hooligans.
