Apple butter shortbread cookies

Soft and chewy apple butter cookies with an apple butter cinnamon sugar swirl throughout and an apple butter icing on top.

There's so much to love about these Apple Butter Cookies! Not only does this apple recipe come out soft and chewy with crinkled tops, but it is also packed with sweet and spicy flavors. Definitely one of the BEST Thanksgiving desserts! Enjoy fall baking!

Soft cookie dough rolled in cinnamon sugar, filled with apple butter, then baked to perfection. These apple butter thumbprint cookies are a fall favorite.

Apple Butter meets snickerdoodle cookies and my heart has never been happier! Made with apple butter, rolled in cinnamon and sugar, and finished with an apple butter glaze. It's a hug in cookie form; soft, pillowy, thick cookie deliciousness!

I’m so excited to be sharing another brand-new Leah Koenig recipe with you all today. These pretty, apple butter-filled cookies are such a fun idea for the High Holidays, and they’re surprisingly soft, too, unlike most shortbread recipes out there. You can also use a store-bought apple butter for the filling, so they come together...

There is nothing like seeing my friends almost melt to the floor when they bite into something I made. These cookies never fail to elicit oohs and aahs. —Amber Taylor, Lenoir City, Tennessee
