“This is a wonderful hot-sweet appetizer that guests always love -- much to their surprise! It's great for all occasions, winter and summer. You can adjust the ingredients based on whether you like it more hot or more sweet, and you can make sugar free, fat free versions, too! I got this recipe from my mother, and it's been a family favorite for years! If you do not have time to let the apricot mixture chill overnight, it will still taste delicious served immediately. Serve with your favorite crackers.” - by Jen Hartnett

The next time I brought it to a party, I mixed it a..." See morell up together an sprinkled a bit of paprika and fresh parsley on top. NOW people were willing to try it. It was a big hit, and I got lots of requests for the recipe."

"Unfortunately this was not well received. I had a candle party with 9 people and I was the only one who tried this. If it's any consolation, I liked it. I guess I don't live in jezebel country...." See more"

"I'm a southerner living in the north where no one has ever had this. I served it at a party recently and it was a big hit with my unenlightened Yankee friends. I might add a little more horseradish to..." See more taste next time, although it was absolutely delicious as the recipe is written."
