I'm not a big fan of apricots, but I loved these cookies! The apricots were not overpowering, and the nuts added a nice crunch. The cookies were also very easy to make.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover apricots. I had a bunch of apricots that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make these cookies. They turned out great! The cookies were soft and chewy, and the apricots added a nice sweetness.
