List of Ingredients




1 1/2 cups crushed vanilla wafers (about 45 cookies)
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup apricot preserves
1 carton (15 oz. ) ricotta cheese
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
3 squares (1 oz. each) semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped toasted almonds
1/4 cup chopped dried apricots
1 cup whipping cream, whipped
1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted


Recipe



Combine the wafer crumbs and butter; press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9" pie plate. Bake at 375 for 6-8 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned; cool. Spread preserves over crust. In a mixing bowl, beat ricotta, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Stir in chocolate, chopped almonds and apricots. Fold in whipped cream. Spoon into the crust. Sprinkle with slivered almonds. Cover and refrigerate over night. "Compliments won't stop for a minute with this one. Better make two."
