Ingredients:  
1/3 c. unsalted butter

1/3 c. whole-wheat flour
1/4 c. low-fat milk or low-fat plain soy milk

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with foil or nonstick baking mats.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan. Remove from the heat. Add oil, oats, sugar, flour, milk (or soy milk), vanilla, salt and nuts and mix well. Drop level teaspoons of dough 3 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Spread each cookie into a thin, 2-inch circle.
Bake the cookies, in batches, until set, 5 to 7 minutes. Let cool completely before removing from the foil or mats.
When the cookies are cool, melt chocolate chips in a double boiler over hot, not boiling, water (or microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring in between). Spread the chocolate on the flat side of half (about 36) of the cookies. Spread a little jam on the flat side of the remaining cookies. Press the apricot and chocolate halves together to make a sandwich cookies. Makes about 3 dozen sandwiches.
