I got this recipe from the mom of one of my friends. She makes these all the time, and I just happened to be present during one of her many baking frenzies when she made these. I love apple butter on biscuits, but had never had it in a cookie...SO GOOD! Unfortunately the picture for these didn't make the move here, so I will have to post a picture as soon as I make them again.
