I've not tried brewing cider before, and I'm looking for a recipe that is generally beginner-friendly. Ideally the cider would end up with an abv of 10% (+/- a few percent, though higher abv is preferred over lower abv😉), maintain much of the flavor of non-alcoholic cider, and be quite sweet. Thanks!

Have you brewed anything else, before?

Ideally the cider would end up with an abv of 10% [...] maintain much of the flavor of non-alcoholic cider, and be quite sweet.
You know that's impossible, right?
One can't drink a ~10% ABV cider without noticing the alcohol as if it were plain, unfermented apple juice.

And why would you?
 
Store bought juice
Brown sugar
Yeast nutrients
Wine yeast

Stabilize with potassium metabisulfite and potassium sorbate

Backsweeten with apple juice concentrate and package.
