Description

Method:
  1. Heat the jam In a small saucepan, add apricot jam and 1 tbsp water.
  2. Simmer gently Warm over low heat, stirring constantly, until the jam becomes glossy and smooth (2–3 minutes). Add a bit more water if it’s too thick.
  3. Flavor it Stir in lemon juice and optional vanilla or cinnamon.
  4. Cool slightly Let it cool for 2–3 minutes so it’s warm, not hot.
  5. Spread on cheesecake Pour or spoon the topping over your chilled cheesecake, and gently spread it evenly using a spatula.
  6. Chill again (optional) Refrigerate for 15–30 minutes to help the topping set before serving.
