I followed the recipe exactly and the apricots turned out burnt. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These were a little too sweet for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try making them with a different glaze next time.

These bacon-wrapped apricots were a huge hit at my last party! The combination of sweet and savory was perfect, and the cranberry glaze added a nice tartness. I will definitely be making these again.
