Oatmeal Cookies with Dried Apricots and White Chocolate

Love this cookie! I have made it using dried cranberries or cherries, definitely keep the chocolate but mixed half the white with dark chocolate chips. Finally, added chopped walnuts or pecans. I use whole wheat, unbleached flour as well. Yum!

I gotta try this one looks really interesting hahahaha

I doubled the dried apricots and used macadamia nuts and semi-sweet chocolate chips. Very good and did not last long at all.

I only needed to bake the cookies for 11 minutes before the edges started darkening so I took them out and they were crisp on the exterior and chewy inside. Still, there's something missing from the flavor . I really didn't taste the apricots and thought the white chocolate completely overpowered its tartness. But, of course, everyone loves homemade oatmeal cookies and they were a hit with the kids.

These are great with apricots or dried cranberry. Would like to try them with macadamia nuts as well.

I made them with rasins instead, and they were terrific. They were all gone by the next day. Have now make them again and hid some so I might have atleast one from this batch

I made these cookies yesterday and they were delicous - I cut the recipe to 1/2 and added 1/2 cup of walnuts -- I baked them only 12min and let sit on the pan 2 min and then removed to wire rack to cool.

I doubled this recipe and to my horror all the cookies joined together. I have double checked the recipe and I did everything right. Does anyone have any comments?

these come out really good. A nice change from the usual

why is it the recipes on here never list the nutrients infromation. Like to know how many carbs and sodium and so on. Or I'm not looking oin the right place

I wouldn't change a thing. This cookie is decadent and tastes fantastic because of the tartness of the apricot and the sweetness of the white choc chips.

I make Scotch oat cakes and use Scotch Oatmeal (granular oats). When you say to use old-fashioned oatmeal are you referring to the regular oat flakes or the granular type.

Again.....if you substitute whole wheat flour, use honey or maple syrup for the sugar, skip the chocolate and add nuts....even good for the kids to eat!

Do you think I could substitute Splenda for the sugar?

Easy, but start checking at 12 min..they burn easily. Very soft.. a bit too sweet for my tastes, not crazy about the flavor.. but I'm not a big fan of white chocolate. Won't make again. I'd perhaps recommend adding nuts...

Excellent cookie and enjoyable to make.

Really good! Nice and soft and very tasty - apricots and white chocolate are a nice change from the traditional chocolate

These were excellent. They have loads of flavor, they are chewy, colorful and best of all, delicious. I will add them to my cookie cookbook, and make them for my Grandkids.

i added a teaspoon /- of grated orange peel and about 1/4 tsp orange extract- i'm finding citrus perks up most anything. also only had 6 oz of white chocolate so i added a couple of oz of chopped dates. yummy

my husband made these cookies and there were awesome.I found them aliitle to sweet,so next time we will cut back on the sugar.

I just finished making these cookies and I do believe taht 14-16 minutes is too long; I would suggest 13 minutes. They are yummy indeed.

I used dried cranberries and it was fantastic. I also used 5 ounces of white chocolate and 3 ounces semi-sweet. They were great!

do you think these could be made with dried blueberries or cranberries?

I just made these today. So yummy!! My kids loved them too (ages 2

Add some sliced toasted almonds to this recipe. They provide a savory crunch to balance the rich sweetness of the white chocolate and soft chewiness of the dried apricots.

I made these cookies yesterday for my Dad's b-day, everyone loved them. The apricot and white chocolate are a great compliment to each other, and not to mention easy. This recipe is a keeper!
