HOLIDAY APPLE SLICE COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the frosting: Add the cream cheese to a medium bowl and whisk until creamy. Add the honey and vanilla, and whisk until combined and smooth. Set aside.
• Slice the apples crosswise into ⅛-inch thick rounds starting 1 inch up from the bottoms. Each apple should yield 3-4 slices, or 12-16 total. Reserve the remaining apple trimmings for another use. Remove any seeds, then pat the apple slices with a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture.
• To make the reindeer apple cookies, scoop 1 tablespoon of peanut butter onto an apple slice and spread evenly over the surface. Place a mini peanut butter cookie at the lower center of the slice, then place a raspberry on top of the cookie. Add 2 candy eyes to the middle and 2 pretzels on the top as antlers. Repeat to make 3-4 more reindeer cookies.
• To make the star apple cookies, spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese frosting evenly over an apple slice.
• Place a small star-shaped cookie cutter in a small bowl of hot water for 1-2 minutes. Remove the cutter from the water and quickly pat dry, then cut out a star-shaped hole from the center of the apple slice. Place the cutout star in an offset position over the star-shaped hole and decorate with festive sprinkles. Repeat to make 3-4 more star cookies.
• To make the wreath apple cookies, use a small round cookie cutter to cut out a round hole from the center of an apple slice. Transfer the remaining cream cheese frosting to a piping bag fitted with a small round tip and pipe around the apple slice in circular curlicues, until you have gone all the way around the apple slice 2 times. Decorate with green and red holly-shaped sprinkles. Repeat to make 3-4 more wreath cookies.
• Enjoy!

Cut each square into eight 1-in. strips., Cut each apple into 8 wedges; wrap 1 strip of pastry around each wedge, placing sugared side of pastry against the apple., Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

APPLE SLICES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan or cookie sheet.
• In a large bowl, stir together the salt and 4 cups flour. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Use a fork to stir in the egg yolks and milk just until dough comes together. On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the dough to 1/8 inch thickness or until big enough to cover the bottom of the jellyroll pan with a little hanging over the sides.
• Arrange the slices of apple to evenly cover the bottom crust. In a small bowl, stir together the 2 tablespoons of flour with the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the sugar mixture over the apple slices. Roll out the remaining dough to cover the apple layer and pinch to seal to the bottom crust. Trim off excess crust and brush with egg white.
• Bake for 40 to 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until apples are tender and crust is brown. If the crust begins to brown too much before the apples are done, cover with foil and continue baking. Cool before cutting into squares.
