2/3Cups sugar
2 1/4Cups all-purpose flour
1 2/3Cup ground almonds
1Cup apricot preserves
2Cups semisweet chocolate chips
2Tablespoons shortening

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Combine flour and ground almonds; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/4-inch round cookie cutter. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 7-9 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Spread jam on the bottoms of half of the cookies; top with remaining cookies. In a microwave, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth. Dip half of each sandwich cookie into chocolate mixture; allow excess to drip off. Place on waxed paper until set. Store in an airtight container
