Apricot Filled Cookies Recipe - Food.com image

This recipe came from a little pamphlet with cookie recipes that a neighbor gave to me when I was about 12. My family always has this at Christmas, along with the Russian Tea Cookies and Frittula. It's an old recipe calling for shortening, and that's the way we still make it. The recipe calls for making your own apricot filling, but when time is short you can substitute prepared apricot preserves.

Total Time 45 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 24 serving(s)

3/4 cup shortening
2 eggs, well beaten

1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups water
6 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 1/2 cups dried apricots, soaked until soft, then chopped

Steps:

  • Cream sugar and shortening.
  • Add eggs.
  • Sift dry ingredients.
  • Add dry ingredients alternating with milk and vanilla; mix well.
  • Roll 1/8 inch thick and cut with 2 1/2 round cutter.
  • Combine filling ingredients in order given.
  • Cook in medium sauce pan over medium heat until it looks like marmalade.
  • Stir frequently to prevent sticking and browning of fruit.
