These just might be the best dang cookies I’ve ever had! Maybe I’m a little bit biased here because I absolutely adore apple pies and churros but nevertheless I’m going to declare these cookies the best cookies ever whipped up in my kitchen. They’re so crispy and crunchy and just perfect with that apple pie filling. As you take a bite make sure you close your eyes and really enjoy the moment, you’ll feel like you’ve died and gone to heaven! I told you I’m a little bit biased here. If you wanted to you could even stick a lollipop stick on them and turn them into churro apple pie lollipops, how cool would that be? But anyway you make these, they are going to be totally adorable, perfect to make with your kids, but perfect for the adults to enjoy as well. I’m speaking from experience here.
What Are Churros?
These tasty little treats are fried pastry dough that originated in the great country of Mexico – or Spain, the jury is still out! They’re lovingly dusted with sugar and cinnamon and best eaten piping hot straight from the fryer. I decided to use puff pastry sheets straight from the grocery store, to make this easy on ourselves.
Ingredients
Pie crust – I just picked up Pillsbury pie crust to form these cookies, it’ll make it way easier to put them together. Filling – I used store bought apple pie filling – again these cookies are meant to be easy! Be sure to chop it up a bit so that it works well in our cookies. Butter – Unsalted or salted works in this recipe, to be brushed over top. Topping – Just mix together white granulated sugar and cinnamon, super simple.

How Long To Bake
It might be a bit difficult to tell with cookies like these when they’re done baking so keep an eye on them while they’re in the oven. You’ll want to ensure that the outside of the cookies are perfectly golden brown and that the apples in the filling are tender to the tooth.
Storing Leftovers
You can store these for up to 3 days sealed in an airtight container. If you make these the day before, reheat them in the oven at 350F for 5 minutes, however these cookies can be enjoyed cold as well.
