Instructions
  1. Prepare the cookie dough

  3. In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter for one minute
  4. Add the white sugar and brown sugar to the butter and cream until smooth and sandy, about 1-2 minutes
  5. Scrape down your bowl
  6. To the creamed mixture, add the apple butter, the vanilla and one of the eggs. Cream until smooth
  7. Scrape the bowl/beater and add the second egg, beating until combined
  8. Add the dry ingredients and the chopped apples to the mixer bowl and blend on low to combine
  9. Give the dough one final mix by hand then cover the bowl and chill the dough for 1 hour
  10. Prepare the cobbler
  11. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the oats, brown sugar and cinnamon
  12. Add 2 tablespoons of apple butter and mix until crumbly
  13. If the mixture looks dry add the remaining tablespoon of apple butter
  14. PREHEAT your oven to 350*F while you portion the cookie dough
  15. Once the dough has chilled, using either a spoon or cookie scoop, portion rounded tablespoons of dough into the cobbler, about 3 or 4 portions at a time
