About Apricot jam cookies

Apricot Jam Cookies are a delightful treat rooted in European baking traditions, often associated with Austrian or Eastern European cuisines. These cookies typically feature a buttery, crumbly dough made from a blend of flour, sugar, butter, vanilla, and sometimes almond extract. The star ingredient is the vibrant apricot jam, nestled in the center or sandwiched between layers, adding a fruity tang to the cookies' richness. While these cookies are a favorite during holidays and celebrations, they are best enjoyed in moderation. The apricot jam offers a dose of natural sweetness and antioxidants, but the cookies are high in sugar and saturated fats due to the use of butter and refined sugar. For a healthier twist, whole-grain flour and reduced sugar jam can be used. Perfect for tea-time or dessert, Apricot Jam Cookies are a testament to the harmonious balance between creamy, tangy, and sweet flavors.
