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

STEPHANIE'S APRICOT WHITE CHOCOLATE COOKIES
I got this recipe from my brother, who is a chef in Philadelphia. We trade recipes from time to time, and he thought they would be tasty. I agreed. I thought the recipe was unique, pairing two distinct flavors in one mouthful. My brother and my father enjoy white chocolate, and they asked me to bake these cookies for them as part of our holiday celebration. Although my brother is a professional, he'll even admit that he defers to me when it comes to cookies, pies and cakes! In our family, I do the baking. I enjoy the flavor of white chocolate mixed with the sweetness of the apricots. I also love how pretty these cookies are. They are great with a cup of tea or a glass of cold milk. Lastly, these cookies are a snap to make. That makes them even better!

APRICOT SHORTBREAD
Looking for a way to upgrade basic shortbread cookie dough? Add in chopped dried fruit, as we've done here, which adds texture and more sweetness. We love apricots, but any variety will do.
