ANZAC BISCUITS III
Traditional Australian recipe, handed down from my mother. Originally, these delicious bikkies (biscuits) were lovingly baked and sent in care packages to our soldiers at war. I am an Aussie living in Japan, so I know the substitutions work because I have had to use them!!

Tips:
- Use ripe apricots: For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy apricots. If you can't find fresh apricots, you can use dried apricots that have been soaked in hot water until softened.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help the biscuits hold their shape and rise properly.
- Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown: The biscuits are done baking when they are golden brown on top and bottom. If you insert a toothpick into the center of a biscuit, it should come out clean.
