Here is how you make Apricot Tea Cookies:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flours, splenda and salt. Cut in cream cheese, margarine and applesauce until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add yogurt, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Meanwhile, combine filling ingredients in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Uncover; simmer 7-9 minutes longer or until most of the liquid is absorbed, stirring occasionally. Set the filling aside to cool. Divide dough in half. On a well-floured surface, roll out each portion into a 10-in. square; cut each into 2-in. squares. Place about 1/2 teaspoon of filling in the center of each square. Bring two opposite corners of square to the center; pinch firmly to seal. Place on greased baking sheets. Bake at 325 degrees F for 18-20 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. Combine the glaze ingredients; drizzle over cooled cookies. Serving Size: 24 cookiesNumber of Servings: 24Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SLJGEMINI75.
