Applesauce - for cookies also

I have been looking for an Applesauce recipes for Years.  I mean years.


So, when I found this one, I was thrilled. 


My Grandma R. used to make this recipe.  We would go to our Grandmothers once a year.  Spending time and learning thing that only a grandmother can teach.  


From Grandma R. I learn to embroider.  Thank Grandma - for the cookie also
