Awesome Apricot Bars

Recipe #344926 | 1 hour | 15 min prep | add private note

By: Dr. Jen

I first tasted these sinful cookies at my bridal shower, and my mother-in-law had to trade a secret family recipe to get this one. These have been a hit every time I've made them. The dough will be rather dense, so I suggest using a large stand mixer or your hands to combine the ingredients.

12 -24 bars (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. 2
    Mix all ingredients together.
  3. 3
    Press 1/2 of mixture into a sprayed 9 x 13 pan.
  4. 4
    Spread jam on top.
  5. 5
    Press remaining mixture on top (flatten first like pancakes & lay on top of jam; if there are spaces, they will fill in).
  6. 6
    Bake 45 minutes at 325 degrees or until pale golden color.
