Special Precautions and Tips:

• Do not overmix the dough, as this will result in tough cookies.
• If you don't have walnuts, you can omit them or substitute another type of nut.
• You can also use fresh apples instead of dried apples. If using fresh apples, chop them into small pieces and toss them with a little flour before adding them to the dough.
• If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour. If the dough is too dry, you can add a little more butter or milk.
