Steps:
- Whisk together flour and salt in a bowl. Beat butter and sugar in separate bowl with an electric mixer until very pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes, then beat in egg and both extracts. At low speed, beat in flour mixture just until a dough forms. Wrap dough in plastic and chill until firm, about 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in the top and bottom thirds. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Pinch off heaping teaspoon-size balls of dough and roll into balls. Place balls on the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart and flatten slightly with the palm of your hand. Bake until puffed, but not browned, about 8 minutes. Remove baking sheets from oven and carefully make a small crater in the middle of each cookie using a teaspoon-size measuring spoon. Fill each crater with ¼ to ½ teaspoon preserves and sprinkle a couple of slivered almonds in preserves. Continue to bake cookies until golden brown on bottom and edges, about 8 minutes more. Cool cookies on baking sheets 5 minutes and then transfer to racks and cool completely. (These cookies can be prepared up to 3 days ahead. Store in an airtight container at room temperature).

Steps:
- Simmer apricots, water, and 1/4 cup granulated sugar in a small saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved and liquid is reduced by about half, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and add rum, then cool slightly. Purée in a food processor or blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids).
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Beat together butter, brown sugar, and remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at moderate speed until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Beat in vanilla and egg. Add flour mixture and mix at low speed until just combined. Form dough into a log and chill, wrapped in plastic wrap, until firm, about 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Divide dough into 8 pieces. Put 1 piece of dough on a sheet of plastic wrap, then fold plastic wrap over dough. Form piece into an 8-inch rope (dough will be very soft). Transfer in plastic wrap to 1 of 2 ungreased baking sheets, then remove plastic wrap. Pat rope into an 8- by 1 1/2-inch rectangle. Make more ropes and pat into rectangles in same manner, arranging them about 2 inches apart. Make a shallow trough lengthwise down center of each rectangle with your finger and spread apricot pureé in trough. Bake in batches in middle of oven until edges are golden, 18 to 20 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
- Whisk together confectioners sugar, lemon juice, and enough water (about 2 1/2 teaspoons) to make a thick but pourable icing. Drizzle icing over rectangles and cut diagonally into 1-inch-thick strips. Let stand until icing is set, about 15 minutes.
- Cooks' note:
- • Cookies keep, layered between sheets of wax or parchment paper, in an airtight container at room temperature 1 week.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan combine the apricots, 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar, and 2/3 cup of water, simmer the mixture for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the mixture is reduced by half, and add the rum. Let the mixture cool slightly and in a blender purée it.
- In a bowl whisk together the flour, the baking powder, and a pinch of salt. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat together the butter, the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and the brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, beat in the vanilla and the egg, and beat the mixture until it is combined well. Add the flour mixture and beat the dough until it is just combined. Form the dough into a log, chill it for 1 hour, and divide it into 8 pieces.
- Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, on a sheet of plastic wrap form the pieces into 8-inch ropes, wrapping the plastic wrap around the ropes to keep the dough from sticking, and on 2 baking sheets pat the rope into a 8- by 1 1/2-inch rectangles. Make a canal down the center of each rectangle with your finger and spread the apricot purée in the canals. Bake the rectangles in 2 batches in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are golden, transfer them to racks, and let them cool. In a small bowl whisk together the confectioners' sugar, the lemon juice, and enough water to make a thick but pourable icing, drizzle the icing over the rectangles diagonally into 1-inch strips. The cookies keep in an airtight container for 1 week.
PEANUT BUTTER APRICOT COOKIES
I made these to grab as a healthy and YUMMY breakfast. I've gotten into the habit of dippng dried apricots in peanut butter; this is my portable version! They can also be made vegan by using an egg substitute for the eggs.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease a cookie sheet and line it with parchment paper.
- Whisk together dry ingredients.
- Blend wet ingredients until as close to smooth as possible.
- Mix dry ingredients with the wet mixture until fully incorporated. The batter will be thick and sticky, so it would probably be easiest to do this with a fork or mixing spoon.
- Stir in the oats and apricots.
- Form into balls and flatten onto parchment paper. Again, this is easier to do with wet hands.
- Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the tops look golden (don't wait for them to brown or they will be too hard when they cool).
- To store (and for transportation purposes), I like to wrap each cookie in plastic wrap. Voila! Bakery-style!
