-
In a saucepan, place the chopped apricots, sugar, and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and let it cool.
Meanwhile, put the mascarpone, cream, a bit of almond flavoring, and whip with electric beaters. Add the previously prepared chilled apricot mixture.
Mix well. Place the amaretti on the bottom of a silicone mold, otherwise, you need to line it with plastic wrap to facilitate removal after freezing. Add the prepared mixture on top and level it. Cover and place in the freezer for a few hours.
Enjoy your meal!
