Vanilice (Serbian Walnut Apricot Cookies)

Delicate and nostalgic, these Serbian walnut cookies are tender to the bite and rich with old-world charm. Sandwiched with vibrant apricot jam and dusted with a graceful sprinkle of powdered sugar, they strike the perfect balance of buttery warmth and fruity brightness.

Finely ground walnuts give the dough its signature texture and depth, while the apricot jam—sweet, tangy, and golden—adds a lively contrast that lingers just long enough.

These little cookies, humble yet refined, carry with them the flavor of tradition, celebration, and something quietly special. A soft-spoken showstopper that invites pause and pleasure with every bite.
