Filled Beehive Cookies image

As a girl, my mother made these for special occasions and we loved them! When I was working with the young women at church, I made them for the girls and they loved them too. They look like beehives and have a wonderful apple-walnut filling. Yum!

These cookies were a disaster! The dough was too sticky to work with, and the filling was too runny. I ended up throwing the whole batch away.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still pretty good. I think I'll try reducing the sugar next time I make them.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these cookies were still really good. The filling is light and fluffy, and the cookie crust is perfectly crispy. I'd definitely make them again, even if I omitted the coconut.

These cookies were easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought pie filling for the filling, and it worked perfectly. I'll definitely be making these again.
