Easy Thanksgiving dessert -- crumb apple pie cookie

So, I went shopping on Sunday & forgot to plan a dessert. 

I had a bunch of my apples that needed used & some chocolate chips on hand so I knew I could figure something out. 

I used 3 different recipes, lol It turned out ok! I would definitely tweak some things if I made it again. 

In process -- beer was mine! 

Completed creation! 

And, plated. 

Here are the recipes used: 

Crust/chocolate chip cookie: 

INGREDIENTS

• 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup light brown sugar
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups milk chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 

Cream together the butter and sugars in a mixing bowl, mixing until pale yellow and light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Mix in the eggs one at a time, and then the vanilla until combined. 

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a separate mixing bowl. Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Stir in the chocolate chips. Portion 2 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and roll together to form a ball, spacing the dough balls 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. 

Bake until the edges just start to brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

I basically baked the cookie mashed in the bottom of a glass dish for a while at 350. 

Added the apples on top. 

Added the crumbly top. 

Baked for a bunch of time longer. How long? Who knows. Keep an eye on it, lol 

And, we called it a pookie-- cookie/pie combo! Enjoy! :)
