Ingredients

100 g unsalted butter softened
100 g soft brown sugar
1 tbsp set honey well flavoured (I used Cornish honey)

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

Cut the butter into pieces and place in a large mixing bowl.
100 g unsalted butter
Add the sugar and cream for a good few minutes until the mixture is very light and fluffy.
100 g soft brown sugar
Add the honey and vanilla extract and cream some more.
1 tbsp set honey, ½ tsp vanilla extract
Sift in the flour and baking powder and stir in.
150 g wholemeal flour (whole wheat), 1 tsp baking powder
Add the apricots pieces along with the chocolate chips and mix until everything is incorporated.
100 g dried apricots, 25 g white chocolate chips
If the dough is soft, place it in a cool place for half an hour to firm up. Roll spoonfuls into walnut sized balls with the palms of your hands.
Place well apart on lined baking sheets and bake at 180℃ (350℉, Gas 4) for 10 minutes until golden and crisped around the edges.
Use a spatula to place them on a wire rack and leave to cool.

Notes

Will keep in a sealed container for four to five days, but will soften as time passes.

They freeze well, but may need a couple of minutes in a hot oven to bring them back to their original delicious chewiness.
