I was blessed with a huge crop of apricots from my single tree this year

(must be the El Niņo).   I have frozen, dried, etc, apricots.  Now there

were so many dead ripe ones I decided to cook up some apricot butter - I

had a brainstorm and added some scotch bonnet chiles to the pureé and
cooked it down to a thick smooth consistancy.    I took about a third of
the batch and added fresh grated ginger to it for an extra kick.  (a bit
of overkill, maybe)

This stuff is awesome.  Hot, sweet, tangy, rich.   It is very tasty on
biscuits. I am trying to  think of what else I can do with it.  maybe
use it as a filling between cake layers, as in applesauce
cake......????    Anybody got any ideas?
