      Yield: 24 Cookies

      1 c  Butter; softened
    3/4 c  Confectioners' sugar
    1/4 c  Brown sugar; packed
      1 lg Egg; room temperature
      2 ts Vanilla extract
  2 1/2 c  A-P flour
      1 tb Ground cinnamon
      1 ts Baking powder
    1/2 ts Salt
      1 ds Ground nutmeg
           Sugar; for coating
    1/2 c  Apple butter

  In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment,
  cream butter, confectioners' sugar, and brown sugar together on
  medium-high speed until the mixture is creamy, 2 to 3 minutes,
  scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in egg and vanilla
  extract until combined.

  In a small bowl, whisk together flour, cinnamon, baking powder,
  salt, and nutmeg; slowly beat into the butter mixture, scraping the
  sides as needed. Cover; chill 30 minutes.

  Set oven @ 325°F/165°C. Line a 15x10x1" baking sheet with parchment
  paper.

  Pour sugar into a small bowl. Roll chilled cookie dough into
  tablespoonfuls. Flatten the balls slightly; coat with sugar. Place
  on prepared baking sheet 2" apart. Press a 1 ts measuring spoon
  into the centers of each cookie to make an indentation. Use your
  fingers to pinch up the sides. Spoon 1 ts apple butter into each
  indentation.

  Bake 13 to 14 minutes or until the edges are set. Transfer to a
  wire rack; let cookies cool completely.
