The Easiest Fruit Spread Ever

Description
This may be obvious to everyone else, but I've just discovered how to make lovely "fruit butter."

Ingredients

 * 1 lbs dried fruit (i.e. apricots)
 * 1 each water to cover

Directions

 * 1) Get a pound of dried fruit (I used apricots).
 * 2) Put in a heavy saucepan with enough water to cover.
 * 3) Simmer for two hours.
 * 4) If there is a lot of liquid left, but the fruit is plump and tender and breaking up, turn up the heat and evaporate the water away until there"s just a tad, like maybe ½ cup.
 * 5) Pour this into a blender and puree for about a minute.
 * 6) Comes out just a bit stiffer than baby food.
 * 7) Really really rich and tasty, sweet and tart.
 * 8) Perfect for my cream of wheat in the morning and toast.
