How to Make Amaretto Apricots With Walnuts Teriyaki

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a jelly-roll pan with foil.
  2. Spread 1 cup walnut halves evenly on the foil-lined pan.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce, 1/4 cup amaretto, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon butter. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened (about 5 minutes).
  4. Pour the warm teriyaki-amaretto sauce over the walnuts, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the walnuts are fragrant and lightly toasted, stirring halfway through.
  6. Remove from oven and transfer the toasted walnuts to a lightly oiled piece of foil. Sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt, if desired, and allow to cool completely.
  7. While the walnuts cool, in a small bowl, combine 4 ounces cream cheese, softened, and 1 tablespoon amaretto. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  8. Assembly: Gently place a teaspoon of the amaretto cream cheese mixture onto each fresh apricot half. Top with a toasted walnut.
  9. Serve immediately or chill for later. Enjoy!
