Awesome Apricot Bars Recipe #344926

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.

  4. Spread jam on top.
  5. Press remaining mixture on top (flatten first like pancakes & lay on top of jam; if there are spaces, they will fill in).
