APRICOT-FILLED COOKIES
The recipe for these rich, buttery cookies originally called for dates. Apricots have long been my favorite fruit, so using them as a substitute seemed natural. -Bonnie Waliezer, Brush Prairie, Washington

ITALIAN SANDWICH COOKIES
This bakery staple is not authentically from Italy, but rather a variation on the classic spritz cookie invented by immigrants. You'd be hard-pressed to find an Italian cookie tray in America that didn't include these after-dinner favorites.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a mixer on medium speed, cream together the butter, sugar and salt until very fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the vanilla and eggs and continue to beat very well for an additional 4 minutes, scraping down the sides at least once. Turn the mixer on low speed and add the flour and baking powder, and mix until just combined.
- Put the dough into a pastry bag or cookie press fitted with a star tip. On an ungreased cookie sheet, pipe cookies in 2-inch lines, spaced at least 1 inch apart. Place in the freezer for 5 minutes (this will help them retain their shape when baking).
- Bake until golden brown, 15 minutes. Let cool on the cookie sheets 3 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Spread a little more than half a teaspoon of jam on half of the cookies, then top with the remaining cookies to make sandwiches. Place in the freezer for another 5 minutes to help set while you prepare the chocolate.
- Toss together the chocolate and the oil and place in a microwave-safe mug. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring occasionally, until completely melted. Put the rainbow sprinkles onto a plate.
- Working quickly, dip the cookies halfway into the chocolate, then roll in the sprinkles. Place finished cookies on a tray lined with either wax or parchment paper to set completely. Cookies will keep in an airtight container for about 1 week.

APRICOT FILLED COOKIES
This recipe came from a little pamphlet with cookie recipes that a neighbor gave to me when I was about 12. My family always has this at Christmas, along with the Russian Tea Cookies and Frittula. It's an old recipe calling for shortening, and that's the way we still make it. The recipe calls for making your own apricot filling, but when time is short you can substitute prepared apricot preserves.

- In a large bowl, cream together your butter and sugar together until smooth and the sugar is fully dissolved. Add in your egg yolks and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine everything together.

Transfer the cookie dough to a large piece of plastic wrap. Press the dough down and shape into a disk. Wrap the dough and refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until it firms up. You can also place the dough in the freezer for 30 minutes to make it quicker. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.
- Take the dough out of the fridge, unwrap, and place on a lightly floured work surface. Roll the dough out to a 1/4 inch thick. Use a lightly floured, 2 inch round cookie cutter to cut out your cookie shapes. Use a smaller cookie cutter (about 3/4 inch) to cut holes in the center of half of your cookies for the sandwich tops.
- Arrange the cut cookies on your baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch of distance between each cookie. ** (see notes) Repeat the rolling and cutting process with the remaining dough. Bake your cookies in the center of your preheated 350°F oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until just slightly golden around the edges.
