For an even richer flavor, try using brown sugar instead of white sugar. Toasting the pecans before adding them to the dip enhances their nutty flavor and adds a pleasant crunch. If you prefer a smoother dip, you can pulse the cranberry mixture in a food processor after baking, before adding the apricot jam and pecans. Consider adding a splash of orange liqueur or Grand Marnier to the cranberry mixture for a more complex flavor profile.
