How to make
Beat the butter or margarine with a mixer for 30 seconds. Add 1 1/4 cups of sugar, the baking powder, mixture of spices and salt, then beat well.
Add eggs and vanilla, beat until you get a smooth mixture. Mix the flour with a mixer, as much as it needs, add the rest with a wooden spoon. Add the apples.
Cover the dough and leave it in the freezer for 2 hours to make it easier to make dough balls. Mix the extra sugar and cinnamon and roll the dough balls in them.
Arrange them 1 1/2″ (4 cm) apart on a greasy oven dish. Bake for 10-12 minutes at 390°F (200 °C) or until the edges harden and become slightly golden. Let them cool on a cooking grid.
