Step-by-Step Instructions for APPLE COOKIES
  1. Begin by washing your apples thoroughly to remove any wax or residues. Slice each apple into thin rings, about a quarter-inch thick, and remove the core from each slice.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, soften your peanut butter if needed. Spread a generous layer of peanut butter over one side of each apple slice.
  3. Sprinkle sliced almonds, chopped walnuts, and shredded coconut over the peanut butter. Add chocolate chips according to your taste.
  4. Arrange decorated apple slices on a serving plate and serve immediately, or chill them for 10 minutes for extra refreshment.
  5. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, placing apple slices side by side to prevent browning.
