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.

BAKED APRICOTS
I had not thought about apricots for a long time, but we had an apricot dish when a group that I belong to ate at the Woodford Reserves for our Christmas celebration. Their apricots did have bourbon and were delicious and a little different than the usual casseroles. I thought I would be able to see their recipe on line, but could not find it. I did find a couple sites that talked about this southern dish. They compared the apricots and ham to cranberries and turkey. I tried it out for a brunch that I was having and found them to be very good. Even my DH who turned up his nose, but thought that he should try them really did like them.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm apricots: Look for apricots that are plump, slightly soft to the touch, and have a deep orange color. Avoid apricots that are bruised or have blemishes.

- Stuff the apricots: Place a small amount of the filling into the cavity of each apricot. You can also add a pecan or almond to the center of each apricot for extra flavor.

- Serve warm or cold: Baked apricots can be served warm or cold. They are a delicious dessert on their own, or you can serve them with whipped cream, ice cream, or yogurt.
Conclusion:
Baked apricots are a simple and delicious dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a good source of vitamins A and C, and they are also a good source of fiber. Baked apricots can be served warm or cold, and they are a great addition to any dessert table.
