In addition to its Pumpkin Cookie Dough that’s filled with cream cheese chips, Pillsbury is bringing back another fall offering for the season. For a limited time, you can enjoy the brand’s Salted Caramel Apple Cookie Dough, and it’s sure to make your kitchen smell delicious.

The refrigerated treat starts with sugar cookie dough, and it’s filled with tart apple bits and sweet salted caramel. The best part is that you have the option of eating it straight out the package (because in 2020, the recipe was changed to make it safe to eat raw) or place the precut pieces onto a cookie sheet and bake. It also means you don’t have to worry about underbaking them if you prefer them to be softer.

You can find Pillsbury’s Salted Caramel Apple Cookie Dough at grocery stores and retailers for a limited time. Each package contains 12 “big cookies,” as opposed to Pillsbury’s usual 24-count. Let’s eat!

Fall is all about classic flavors that make you feel warm and cozy inside. When you’ve had your pumpkin fix for the day, you can still get a seasonally appropriate flavor with Pillsbury’s Salted Caramel Apple Cookie Dough. And yes, they’re just as good as they sound.

While you might have had the Salted Caramel Apple Cookie Dough last year, they’re even better this year because it has a new recipe that lets you safely eat the dough raw. So whether you have the restraint to fire up the oven or not, you can enjoy the crisp autumn flavors. The sugar cookie dough is filled with tart apple bits and sweet salted caramel, so it’s basically like a caramel apple in cookie form.

The limited-edition flavor is expected to hit shelves soon, since as you know, seasonal sweets tend to make their way to stores in advance. So keep an eye on the refrigerator section where you usually buy Pillsbury treats, and these should be there well before the leaves start changing.

What makes the Salted Caramel Apple Cookie Dough even more special is that unlike the typical 24 precut pieces Pillsbury does, these are cut into 12 cookies. That means you’ll get huge cookies and you’ll be able to see all those apple bits and caramel swirls. Now just imagine how good your house is going to smell while these babies are baking.
