Everybody loved this! I have made something similar using a hot pepper jelly and cream cheese, but this was even better. I only had apricot perserves. I also increased the horseradish to taste and used 1 tsp. of the mustard. I agree with other reviewers that the leftover sauce would be great with egg rolls, wontons, shrimp, etc. This is simple and tasty! Thanks for posting ~Leslie~. Made for ZWT 6.

I had to give this a try because I love all the ingredients and they seem unusual to put together. Very tasty but I think I would have liked a bit more horseradish sauce and mustard to even out the sweeter flavors of the preserves. Served with cracked black pepper crackers and enjoyed on New Year's Eve. Thank you sweetie for posting your mom's recipe! Made and reviewed for a pressie in the Autralian/New Zealand Forum's 12 Days of Christmas recipe tag.

Company was coming and I wanted to make something easy and quick. This was it! It was a big hit with all of us and I plan to make it often when I am entertaining or to bring to a pot luck. I served it with assorted crackers, and everyone totally loved it!
