âThese easy-to-make cookies are very popular. You can also try milk chocolate and walnuts for dipping. They taste like a completely different cookie but are just as delicious!â âTrisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar |
1/2 teaspoon almond extract |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup finely chopped dried apricots |
8 ounces white candy coating, chopped |
1 cup finely chopped almonds, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and confectioners' sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in extract. Gradually add flour and mix well. Stir in apricots.
2. Roll 1 tablespoonful of dough into a 2-1/2-in. log; shape into a crescent. Repeat. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 350° for 10-14 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
3. In a microwave, melt candy coating; stir until smooth. Dip half of each cookie in coating; allow excess to drip off. Press into almonds; place on waxed paper. Let stand until set. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 3 dozen.
