How to Make Applesauce Jumbles

Step-by-Step

In a large bowl, mix all cookie ingredients with spoon. (If dough is soft, cover and refrigerate.)
Heat the oven to 375'F. On greased cookie sheet, drop dough by rounded teaspoons full about 2" apart.
Bake 8-10 minutes or until almost no indentation remains when touched. Immediately remove from the cookie sheet to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
In a 1-quart saucepan, melt butter over low heat until golden brown. Remove from heat. Stir in powdered sugar and vanilla. Stir in hot water just until smooth and spreadable. Spread on cookies.
