3 3/4 cups flour
5 teaspoons apple pie spice
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups brown sugar packed
1 cup butter or margarine, softened (2 sticks)
1/2 cup applesauce thick
1/2 cup corn syrup dark
1 egg large

1. In a small bowl, mix flour, apple pie spice, baking powder, and salt set aside.

2. In a large bowl at medium speed, beat brown sugar and butter until fluffy. Beat in applesauce, corn syrup, and egg. On low speed, gradually beat in flour mixture.

3. Divide dough into four portions. Wrap each portion in plastic wrap or waxed paper. Chill several hours until firm enough to roll.

4. Turn oven on to 350°. Grease cookie sheets or spray with non-stick coating.

5. On a lightly floured surface, roll one portion of the dough at a time into a 1/4 -inch thick circle. Dip cutter into flour before cutting each cookie. Place cookies about 1 inch apart on cookie sheets.

6. For soft cookies, bake 8 to 10 minutes. For crisp cookies, bake 12 to 14 minutes. Use hot pads to carefully remove cookie sheets from the oven. Remove cookies from cookie sheets and cool on wire cooling racks.
