Steps:
- Pour 2 cups of the apricot nectar into a saucepan reserving the rest. Add all the jello to the 2 cups nectar and stir well. Heat the saucepan to boiling, stirring constantly, until all the jello is dissolved.
- Pour reserved nectar into a large bowl and add the contents of the saucepan. Stir well to blend. Line a large jello mold with the apricot halves, rounded side down. Pour 2 cups of the jello-nectar mixture over the apricot and refrigerate until firm but still a little sticky, about 1 hour. In a bowl, combine the sour cream with 2 more cups of the jello-nectar mixture and beat until fluffy. Pour on top of the first layer already in mold and let chill 2 hours. Pour remaining jello-nectar mixture over the sour cream layer and chill for several hours or overnight.
- To unmold, dip the mold into hot water for 20 second or so. Loosen around the edges with a knife. Turn out onto serving plate. You may decorate the mold by encircling with fresh fruit or more apricot halves.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe apricots. This will give your mold the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have fresh apricots, you can use frozen or canned apricots. Just be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- You can also use other fruits in this recipe, such as peaches, strawberries, or blueberries. Just be sure to use fruits that are similar in size and texture to apricots.
- Be careful not to overcook the apricots. They should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape.
- Let the mold cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly.
