The recipe for Chocolate Chip Apricot Cookies is from my cookbook “Easy Baking, Hershey’s Cocoa”. When I made them for the first time, they became a favorite of my family. Nothing is better than a Hershey Chocolate Chip Cookie, with oatmeal, and adding apricots to make a soft and chewy cookie that everyone will love. Change it up and use dried cherries, cranberries, or other dried fruit.

These cookies are perfect for any occasion. They are great for a snack or dessert, and they also make awesome cookies for gift giving. If you are looking for a delicious cookie, then these are the cookies for you!
