I saw this recipe for these caramel cookies and went OMG, for anyone who loves caramel this is heaven sent. I wanted to share this with you these little marvels, so enjoy making them as well as eating them I know I sure did.

For the cookies:

1/2 cup solid vegetable shortening

1-1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

1 large egg

1/2 apple juice, divided

2-1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

1 cup apples, peeled and shredded

For the Caramel Frosting:2 to 3 tablespoons margarine, softened1/3 cup packed light brown sugar2 tablespoons water1-1/2 cup powdered sugar2 to 4 tablespoons milk5 tablespoons finely crushed walnuts

To make the cookies:Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Grease baking sheet(s). In a large mixing bowl, beat shortening and brown sugar in medium bowl until blended; beat in egg and apple juice. In another mixing bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and cloves. Stir flour mixture into shortening mixture. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup apple juice and the apples. Drop by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets. Bake a 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on wire racks.

To make the Caramel Frosting: Heat margarine, brown sugar, and water over medium high heat in saucepan, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat; beat in powdered sugar and enough milk to make spreadable consistency; use immediately. If frosting begins to harden, return to low heat and stir in more milk.

Spread frosting on each cookie and sprinkle with crushed walnuts.
