Eggless Apricot Cheesecake

"Explore the Vegetarian Chef in YOU!"

This Eggless Apricot Cheesecake came about when I inadvertently left a pan of apricots simmering in water throughout lunch one day. They cooked and cooked and cooked until there was only a soft tangy sweet apricot sludge in the bottom of the pan. What to do? Obviously, find a use for it. Now I do it on purpose!

If you love our Eggless New York Style Cheesecake and you also love Apricots, well, this recipe will definitely take you over the top in your vegetarian kitchen!

Ingredients:

Crust:

6 Tbs. Melted Butter
1 ½Cups Crushed Graham Crackers
2 Tb. Sugar

Mix together and place in a spring form pan. Using a flat sided, flat bottomed glass, press material into the corners of the pan; and smooth the bottom and sides. Bake 10 minutes. Set on wire rack to cool.

1# Ricotta
2 pkgs. Cream Cheese
2 Cups Sour Cream
3/4 Cup Orange Blossom Honey
