Just in time for fall, lifestyle blog Bake at 350 created these delicious fruit cookies shaped like golden delicious apples that celebrate September as [apple picking season](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-cinnamon-bitz). Rather than giving these biscuits a realistic look, the cookies feature dainty patterns and chic pastel colors.

These cookies are incredibly easy to make and feature a simple to follow sugar cookie dough recipe. The apple shapes can be cut using a knife or a simple apple cookie cutter to streamline the process. The cookies are then topped with colorful royal icing in shades such as green and pink topped with golden details such as stripes and poka dots. These would be ideal to bring to a [fall-themed party](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nothing-bundt-cakes-cheers-to-autumn) or to make to celebrate Thanksgiving.
