Gradually mix in 2 cups powdered sugar and mix until it reaches a good drizzling consistency, similar to that of the caramel syrup. Add more powdered sugar if necessary; you don't want it to be so thin that it will run.
• Drizzle icing over the cookies; it's okay if it melts into the apple filling.
• Enjoy right away while they're super fresh, or wait until icing hardens, about 3 hours.
