Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the egg, vanilla extract, and apple cider to the mixture and beat until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined.
- Fold in the diced apples gently to avoid overmixing.
- Scoop generous balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden and centers are set but slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and apple cider to make a smooth glaze.
- Once cookies are cool, drizzle the glaze over each cookie and allow it to set.

Notes
Chill the dough if it's too sticky and reduce the cider for a richer flavor. Use tart apples for best taste balance.
