This recipe is really easy and very good. I used a whole jar of apricot jam, just didn't think 3/4 cup was enough. I am going to try other flavors of jam too. I think any kind would work fine. So far everyone that has tried it (I brought it to work today) has raved about it. It is a keeper! -
This recipe is worth 5 stars just for the memories! My mom used a full cup of margarine and the entire jar of preserves as well, heating them slightly before spreading to make it easier. Your detailed instructions filled in the gaps on my recipe card and I was able to recreate the experience for my family. I think these are the most simple and the best of all the apricot bar recipes around! Just proves that simple really is best. Thank you.
