Bake at 375 degrees F for 3 minutes, then reduce heat to 325 degrees F for about 12 minutes longer.
When baked, these cookies should be light in color and appear frosted. Keep cookies in a tightly covered can for 2 or 3 weeks before using. To soften, put an apple in container a day or so before they are served.
