I'm not a fan of cardamom, but I still enjoyed these cookies. The apricot flavor is strong enough to balance out the cardamom. I would definitely make them again.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover apricots. They're also a good make-ahead snack or dessert. I often freeze them and then thaw them as needed.
