Prepare the oven

Preheat the oven to 190°C (Th. 6). Line the bottom and sides of an 18 cm square pan with baking paper.

Place the butter in a large saucepan and add the carob powder. Heat over low heat, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Add the remaining ingredients.

Baking

Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until it starts to firm up. Cut into squares or strips while the cake is still warm. Cool in the pan.

Make the frosting

In a small saucepan, heat the carob (presumably carob chunks or powder) and thick cream over low heat, stirring. Drizzle the syrup over the cookies and sprinkle with chopped dried apricots.
