APRICOTS WITH AMARETTO SYRUP (ALBICOCCHE RIPIENE)

Steps:

• Peel apricots with a vegetable peeler, then halve and pit. Finely chop 2 halves and set aside.
• Heat butter in a 12-inch heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat until foam subsides, then cook sugar, stirring constantly, until golden brown. Stir in Amaretto (be careful; syrup will spatter) and simmer, stirring, 2 minutes.
• Working in 2 batches, poach apricot halves in syrup at a low simmer, turning, until almost tender, 5 to 10 minutes per batch. Using a slotted spoon, transfer apricots, hollow sides up, to a platter.
• Add crumbled amaretti to syrup and cook over low heat, crushing cookies with back of a wooden spoon, until melted into a coarse purée.
• Stir in reserved chopped apricot and gently simmer, stirring, until syrup is deep brown and slightly thickened. Cool syrup slightly.
• Spoon syrup over apricots and sprinkle with pine nuts (if using). Serve warm or at room temperature.
