Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate 30 minutes or overnight., For the filling, melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add apples and next 6 ingredients; stir to combine. Cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until apples have softened and released their juices, 10-12 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer apple slices to a 15x10-in. baking pan; spread into a single layer. Add cider to remaining liquid in Dutch oven and bring to a boil; cook until juices reduce to 1/2 cup, 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat; add lemon juice and vanilla extract. Pour over apple slices; cool completely. (Filling can be made 24 hours in advance and refrigerated.), Preheat oven to 425°. Adjust oven rack to lowest position; place foil on rack to catch any spills. On a lightly floured surface, roll half of dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a deep dish 9-in. pie plate. Trim pastry to within 1/2-in. of rim. Add filling. Roll remaining dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edge. Cut slits in top.

APPLE CIDER WHOOPIE PIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bring the apple cider to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Continue to cook the cider until it has reduced to 1/4 cup/60 milliliters, about 16 to 18 minutes. Let cool completely. (You can pop the reduced cider in the fridge or freezer to cool faster while you continue.)
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium, beat the room-temperature butter and brown sugar until fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary. Add egg, apple butter and reduced apple cider, and beat until combined. Your batter may look like it has separated slightly, and that's O.K. Add the dry mixture and mix just until combined, again scraping the bowl as necessary.
• Portion the dough into 2-tablespoon scoops on 2 parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets, about 1 1/2-inches apart. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until the cakes are puffed and set, 12 to 14 minutes. Transfer sheets to racks. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and the granulated sugar. Brush the tops of the warm cakes with a bit of the melted butter and gently toss them in the sugar mixture. Set aside to cool completely.
• In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla and beat to combine. Spread about 2 tablespoons of filling on the flat side of half of the cakes. Top with the other halves.

APPLE PIE CIDER FLOATS

Steps:

• Make cinnamon syrup first: Put 1/4 cup water, 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring to melt the sugar thoroughly. Set aside for later.
• In a pitcher, place 2 cups apple cider, 1/4 cup cinnamon syrup previously made up, apple Schnapps, and bourbon. Whisk until blended. (Can also be shaken in a cocktail shaker.)
• Pour about 3 inches of cocktail mix into a coffee mug. Microwave until very warm but not super hot. Drop 3 scoops of ice cream into the mug. Stir a little. Serve with a cinnamon stick or spoon. You can add a squirt of whipped cream on top to decorate. The hot cider melts the ice cream into a wonderful apple pie flavored drink! You can adjust the amount of bourbon and Schnapps as you like.
• If you save this in the fridge for later, be sure to whisk it well before putting in the mug as the cinnamon tends to settle to the bottom when chilled.
