Elevate your cheese platter with luxurious stuffed apricots - a blend of creamy cheese, crunchy almonds, and tangy dried cherries. Only 5 ingredients needed!
Ingredients:
  • 4 oz cream cheese (half of 8-oz package), softened
  • 1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted, chopped*
  • 1/4 cup chopped dried cherries or sweetened dried cranberries
  • 2 tablespoons amaretto liqueur
  • 30 soft whole dried apricots
Instructions:
  • Combine cream cheese, 1/4 cup of almonds, cherries, and amaretto in a bowl, then transfer the mixture into a small resealable plastic bag. Cut a 1/2 inch opening in one corner of the bag.
  • Using your fingers, gently split the apricots along one side to create a partially open clamshell shape. Then, fill each apricot with approximately 1 teaspoon of the cheese mixture using a piping bag.
  • Finely chop the remaining almonds. Coat the cheese edge of apricots with the almonds. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour before serving.
