Apricot Almond Blondies image

My mom shared this recipe with me after sampling these cookies at a bed-and-breakfast. For a little variation, I sometimes substitute cranberries and pecans for the apricots and almonds. -Amy Forkner, Cheyenne, Wyoming

I'm allergic to almonds, so I substituted walnuts in this recipe. They turned out great!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my blondies turned out really dry. I think I might have overbaked them.

I found these blondies to be a bit dry. I think I would add a little extra butter next time.

These blondies were a little too sweet for my taste, but I still thought they were good.

I'm not a big fan of apricots, but I really enjoyed these blondies. The almond flavor really balanced out the tartness of the apricots.

These blondies were a hit with my family! They were moist, chewy, and full of apricot and almond flavor. I'll definitely be making them again.
