My mom started making these a few years ago and now I look forward to them every year! We make ours without the glaze and have them with tea. You can also use fancier jams...my favorite is almond apricot. You cannot go wrong with them simple little cookies!!

I've been looking for the best apricot recipe cookie like my mom used to make. This is BETTER than my mom used to make! The dough is easy to work with (as opposed to some other recipes I've tried) and the apricot filling is far and above the store bought type. These will be a Christmas tradition for me now every year!

These quickly disappeared shortly after I made them so I'm guessing that everyone liked them! I used apricot jelly but I would recommend using dried apricots, like the recipe called for because when they baked, the jelly seeped out and the cookies seemed kinda flat. I also sprinkled a little cinnamon and nutmeg over the filling before baking and changed the glaze a little bit too; I used melted butter and milk instead of water. If I make these again, I'll probably add some chopped walnuts too.

Loved these! They are pretty and delicious! I made the apricot filling as described; it was very easy to make and excellent. I also drizzled the glaze which is a nice touch. These cookies don't look so great when they come out of the oven (at least mine didn't), but once you drizzle the glaze on you don't see any imperfections. The only change I will make next time is to use milk or cream for the glaze instead of water. I will make these again and again. Oh - and I froze the butter, and then grated it using a small box grater. Makes it easer to work into the flour.

I made 11 types of cookies for a Christmas party. I doubled this reciepe and STILL only 15 of these made it to the party. I used powdered sugar instead of icing and apricot preserves instead of making the filling. VERY yummy! I will definately be making these again!

I made 8 different cookie recipes from this site and these were eaten by my family before I could pack them in tins! They are awesome and pretty to look at. Instead of using the drizzle part, I just sprinkled powdered sugar over them. Very delicious! Also, keep your eye on simmering sauce, will overboil easily.
