  6. Incorporate reduced cider and caramel: Stir in cooled apple cider and caramel bits until evenly distributed.
  7. Chill dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) while dough chills.
  9. Roll cookies: Scoop dough into one-inch balls; if desired, roll them in sugar before placing on lined baking sheets.
