Notes

this is another family favorite, it comes out for birthdays and all sorts of special occasions!

  • Apricot cheesecake is certainly different! I had never thought to use apricot in a cheesecake or any dessert for that matter. It is not a favourite fruit of mine, but I must admit the ingredients do sound nice, although I’m not sure how I would go with the big apricot slices on top!
