This dessert recipe for Decadent Cognac Apricots is nice served hot or cold. It has only three steps and uses the microwave and the crock pot slow cookerYou could substitute peaches if you like them better than apricots and use brandy instead of cognac. If you don't like the taste of cognac or brandy then you can add more orange juice but I encourage you to use the cognac for a wonderful taste sensation and to make the dessert a little more special.
