So, tonight I made the best dinner...well, that is strictly my opinion and I will share it all with you soon! But the best part of tonights dinner with my sweet Mitch, Britney and Layton...was Layton!
Ok, that is a given...but the other best part....this luscious Caramel Apple Cookie Cobbler!
Yes, you heard me! It is all that and then some!
The hardest part of this dessert is simply peeling the apples! I used a mix of Honeycrisp and Granny Smith simply because that is what I had on hand. It was fabulous!
Nothing says 'Fall' to me quite like apple or pumpkin desserts.
I started to ask Mitch and Britney what they wanted but after seeing this yummy dessert on Pinterest last night I knew what I wanted to make! I'm so glad I did! You can see the original recipe HERE!
No lie, I think I might go out and stock up on this limited edition cookie mix just so I can keep making this wonderful concoction! And I'm not really a dessert kind of gal!
After you've sautéed the apples and they cook down you simply pour them into your prepared dish and sprinkle the dry cookie mix over the apple mixture.
And then....get ready to hear Paula Dean in your ear! BUTTER! One cup of melted, unsalted butter goes on the top! Wow! It really was very hard for me to finish this part...but I did..because I didn't think I would really love it! In fact, I pictured myself sending the rest home with Mitch and Britney! Oh no...it's still here! I think I may have to freeze it!
When it comes out of the oven...it looks amazing!
And whats even better is that your house smells amazing! Please try this one!
Let it be your new Fall Dessert!
You will be so glad you did!
