Today we are sharing Apricot Coconut Cookies! These are the perfect combination of fruity flavors combined into a seriously good cookie. I gave these to John's Grandmother and she loved them.
Apricot Cookies
Day 11 already of our 25 days of holiday cookies and treats!
Can you tell I have been on a coconut kick lately? I just realized we have already had 4 other cookies with coconut in them over the past 11 days of holiday cookies. I really hope y'all like coconut as much as I do.
If you are not a coconut fan like our Hawaiian neighbor, which seems wrong on so many levels, Don't worry we will have some non-coconut cookies this week too! 🙂
Are you diving headfirst into holiday baking or putting it off for a few more weeks?
Before I forget the glaze that is on these cookies is pure bliss. Oh my goodness! I am going to admit here and now that I just might have licked the spoon and went back for a second sample of the glaze. Hello Yum!
