Apricot Whip Recipes

Steps:

• Heat broiler to high, with rack set 4 inches from heat. Squeeze juice from grated ginger into a large bowl (you should get about 1 teaspoon juice); discard pulp. Add cream and granulated sugar. Whip until soft peaks form; refrigerate.
• Place apricots, cut side up, on a rimmed baking sheet. Dividing evenly, top with brown sugar, butter, and cardamom. Broil until apricots just begin to char, 2 to 5 minutes. Top apricots with whipped cream, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cook first 3 ingredients covered in heavy small saucepan over medium heat until apricots are tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer contents of pan to processor. Add vanilla and puree, scraping down sides of bowl occasionally. Transfer puree to large bowl and cool. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before continuing.)
• Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350°F. Spray 9x9x2-inch pan with vegetable oil spray. Using electric mixer, beat egg whites with pinch of salt in large bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar and continue beating until stiff but not dry. Fold whites into puree in 2 additions. Spoon apricot mixture into prepared pan, smoothing top. Place pan on baking sheet with sides. Pour enough water into baking sheet to measure 1/2 inch. Set sheet in oven and bake until apricot mixture is firm in center and golden brown, covering very loosely with foil if browning too quickly, about 40 minutes. Let stand at least 15 minutes and up to 3 hours.
• Spoon apricot whip into deep bowls. Serve, passing berries separately.

Steps:

• Drain apricots reserving 1/4 cup syrup; remove pits.
• Blend apricots in blender.
• Combine apricots, marshmallows, and reserved syrup in saucepan.
• Cook over medium heat stirring till marshmallows are dissolved. Cool.
• Fold in whipped cream. Chill.
• This is rich so a little goes a long way.
• This is nice served with simple chocolate cookies!

Steps:

• Add sugar, lemon juice, vanilla, and almond extract to apricot puree.
• Soak gelatin in 2 T.
• cold water for 5 min.
• Dissolve over hot water.
• Stir into apricot mixture.
• Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites.
• Pour into prepared pie shell and chill overnight.

Steps:

• Puree the 1 1/2 cups chopped apricots and fold in with the cool whip (save a nice dollop) and apricot preserves.
• Scoop into the prepared pie shell and chill.
• Before serving pit and slice the remaining apricots and arrange in a fan or flower on top of pie with the remaining dollop of cool whip.

Steps:

• Heat apricots by placing them in a bowl, cover with water, and microwave on high for about 10 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Soften gelatin in the cold water. Blend apricots into the gelatin. Add lemon juice, sugar and salt and mix. Chill until slightly thickened (about 1 hour).
• Whip the cooled apricot mixture until frothy. In a separate bowl, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the apricot mixture.
• Split cake into 2 or 3 layers. Fill between layers, and frost side and top. Chill overnight.

Steps:

• Put the apricot halves in a saucepan with the lemon zest and juice and the sugar. Shake the pan to combine, then simmer, uncovered, over a medium heat until the apricots are soft. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
• Tip the contents of the pan into a blender or food processor and whizz to a purée. Decant into a bowl, stir in the liqueur and leave to cool - about 20-30 minutes.
• Soften the mascarpone in its tub by whisking it vigorously with a fork. Whip the cream in a bowl - you want it softly whipped not stiff. Fold in the mascarpone with a large metal spoon, then lightly swirl in the apricot purée to make a pattern.
• Spoon the mixture into six wine glasses. (At this point, they'll keep in the fridge for up to a day.) To serve, crumble over the amaretti, with a few on the side for dunking.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add yogurt to gelatin; stir 2 minutes to completely dissolve. Gently stir in whipped topping, then marshmallows and apricots. Refrigerate until firm, at least 4 hours.
