This fruity topper is divine with cream cheese on crackers. Or spoon it over a round of Brie cheese and warm just until melting. – Heather Howe
Ingredients
- 1 cup white wine
- 1 cup chopped dried apricots
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
- 1/2 tsp lemon juice
Preparation
In large glass measuring cup, microwave wine at high for 1 minute or until hot. Add apricots; let stand for 1 hour. Strain into saucepan, pressing apricots to release any liquid; set apricots aside.
Add sugar and water to pan; bring to boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Boil until syrupy, about 10 minutes. Add apricots and jalapeno pepper; simmer until as thick as corn syrup, about 10 minutes. Stir in lemon juice. Let cool.
Spoon into decorative jars. Seal and refrigerate for up to 1 month.
