POACHED APRICOTS WITH PISTACHIO AND AMARETTO MASCARPONE
This dessert, which manages to be both rich and wonderfully refreshing, requires very little effort. Make sure, though, that you use apricots that are at their very best. Other light dessert wines can be used instead of Sauternes.

Steps:
- Poach the apricots: Add Sauternes, lime half, vanilla, sugar and 3 tablespoons/40 milliliters water to a saucepan just big enough to hold the apricot halves in one layer. Place the pan over high heat and cook until the sugar has melted and the liquid boils.
- Remove the pan from the heat and place the apricots in the hot liquid, cut sides down. Leave them to poach in the residual heat until they are soft but still hold their shape (20 to 40 minutes, depending on how ripe they are) flipping them every 10 minutes. Set the apricots aside to cool slightly. (If not serving immediately, transfer the apricots to a covered container and refrigerate until needed.) Squeeze the lime into the syrup and then discard it; return the saucepan with the syrup to medium-high heat and simmer until reduced to about 1/4 cup/70 milliliters, 5 to 6 minutes. Set aside at room temperature until needed.
- Prepare the mascarpone mixture: Combine pistachios, amaretti cookies and sugar. Add three-quarters of this mixture to a bowl with the mascarpone and mix it all together until combined, then fold in the cream.
- To serve, divide the apricots and the amaretti cream between four bowls. Pour the syrup over the apricots and sprinkle the remaining amaretti and pistachio crumble over the cream. Finish with orange blossom water and lime zest and serve.

AMARETTO APRICOT COOKIES
This makes a very healthy tasting, chewy cookie....it isn't a crisp cookie. I had it on a Christmas Cookie Exchange this year, and really enjoyed it! Originally authored by Brenda Bragg from Ohio. Cook time is actually 8 minutes per cookie sheet, I just increased the cooking time to accomodate multiple cookie sheetfuls!

ALBICOCCHE AL FORNO (BAKED APRICOTS WITH AMARETTI)
A delicious Italian classic often also made with peaches, but I prefer it with apricots. The apricots are filled with amaretti cookies, amaretto, sugar and egg yolk and baked in the oven with white wine. They can be served warm or at room temperature and are delicious paired with vanilla ice cream or white chocolate mousse. However, I also love them on their own. They were a big hit at a party I catered for. However, at the party I had far too much filling for the apricots. Maybe I've made a mistake when multiplying the recipe. I will try it out again and make changes to the recipe if necessary.

Steps:
- Please note: I will have to check the amount of filling and the amount of apricots again, which I will do soon. If you decide to make it, please have some extra apricots ready.
- Preheat oven to 180°C (355°F).
- Put amaretti cookies into a small bowl and pour the amaretto over it.
- Wash apricots and cut them in halves. Discard the stone.
- Using a spoon, take out some of the fruit flesh without hurting the skin. Roughly chop the fruit flesh.
- Add sugar, egg yolk and chopped apricot flesh to the amaretti cookies and mix. While mixing, crush the cookies with a spoon. Do not mix for too long; it's nice to have some cookie chunks.
- Fill the apricots with the mixture, ca 1 tablespoon per half.
- Put into a well buttered oven-proof baking dish.
- Pour white wine over apricots.
- Bake for ca 25 minutes or until done.
