- 450 g fresh, ripe apricots 1 lb
- 1 tablespoon potato starch
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 250 ml water 1 cup
- Alternatively:
- a few tablespoons apricot/peach jam OR Dr. Oetker clear glaze
Base:
Crust: Process the biscuits and the amaretti in a food processor. Alternatively, place them in a freezer bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Add the melted butter and combine well. Press this mixture onto the bottom of a buttered 18 cm/7-inch springform. Place in the fridge until you are finished with making the filling.
Filling:
Melt the chocolate: Chop the white chocolate very finely. Place it in a small metal bowl, place this bowl on top of a pan filled with water. Make sure the water doesn't touch the bottom of the bowl. Heat the water, but do not let it come to a boil. Melt the chocolate while stirring often. Set aside and let stand for up to 10 minutes.
In the meantime, finely chop 2 or 3 of the apricots.
Filling: Whip the cream. Beat the cream cheese until smooth. Carefully fold in the whipped cream. Add 3-4 tablespoons of the whipped cream mixture to the chocolate and stir well. At low speed, beat the white chocolate into the cream mixture. Continue beating until soft peaks form.Fold in the chopped apricots and distribute this mixture onto the base of the cheesecake. Level. Slice the rest of the apricots (or as many as necessary) and arrange them on top of the cake.
