| 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. | 2. Cream butter and 1 cup of the sugar. | 3. Add egg and water. | 4. Stir in flour and baking powder. Dough will be stiff. | 5. Press into two greased 9" cake pans with your hands. Do not try to push the dough up the sides. | 6. Press halved apricots into the top of the dough, cut side up, placing them as close together as possible while leaving a little gap in between. Don't let them touch the sides of the pans. | 7. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup sugar over all. | 8. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes, until dough is no longer wet-looking. Watch the color of the edges carefully. | 9. Allow the kuchens to cool for at least 10 minutes before removing them from the pans. They break easily, so the old plate-on-top-and-flip technique is best for removing them in their entirety. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
