Makes about 4 dozen bite size cookies.
These cookies have a distinct taste of apples. They are especially yummy on cold days with a hot cup of tea. They keep very well refrigerated, stored in an air-tight container.
INGREDIENTS:
4 ounces dried apples
1 1/3 cup all purpose flour
7 tablespoons unsalted cold butter, cut into small pieces
1/3 cup superfine sugar
1 large egg
PREPARATION:
Preheat the oven to 400F.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor fitted with the steel blade chop the apples finely. Add the flour, butter, sugar and egg.
Pulse until the mixture clings to the blade and almost forms a ball.
Form teaspoons of the dough into a ball and flatten them lightly.
Bake for about 15 minutes; they should be firm to the touch and the underside should be golden.
Cool on a wire rack.
