This is the version I use.  I know I got it from this list.  I missed 
whatever other discussion there was on this recipe, but anyway .... I use 
something like Smucker's apricot preserves and dried apricots off the shelf 
... Del Monte or whatever's there.  It's always come out fine and is a 
great recipe!
