If there is one food that always brings me back to my childhood, it’s my Mom’s applesauce cookies, a recipe passed down from her Great Grandmother. These cookies are so soft with just the right amount of spices. They taste like Christmas in your mouth.
A good cookie sheet is a must have for evenly baked cookies. I have these from Wilton and they are amazing. Amazon has them for a really good price too (Paid Link) https://amzn.to/2II7EfK. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
