410g can apricot halves
2 tablespoons clear honey
250g ricotta cheese
150ml cream
Make up 1 x lemon jelly as per packet
directions
Drain the can of apricot halves and reserve the juice. Place
the apricots in a food processor (keep
two for decoration). Add the clear honey and ricotta cheese. Whiz together
until smooth. In a large bowl, whisk the cream until thick.
Add the apricot mixture and stir together until evenly mixed. Make
up the 1 lemon jelly but use only 350ml liquid. Use enough boiling water
to dissolve the jelly then top up the required amount with the juice from
the apricot can. Set aside until cold and starting to thicken.
Gradually stir the apricot mixture into the thickened jelly, spoon into
glasses or serving dishes and chill until set. Decorate each
serving with whipped cream, chopped nuts, the chopped reserves apricots
and a drizzle of honey. Accompany with dessert biscuits.
