• 1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
• 1/2 cup finely chopped dried apricot
• 1/4 cup commercial chopped chutney

1. Drain pineapple, reserving 3 tablespoons juice. Combine pineapple, reserved juice, apricot, and next 3 ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 5 to 7 minutes or until thickened, stirring frequently. Transfer to a bowl; chill thoroughly.
2. Position knife blade in food processor bowl. Add cheeses and margarine; process until smooth, scraping sides of processor bowl occasionally.

Repeat layers with 1/2 cup cheese mixture and half of remaining pineapple mixture in each mold. Spread remaining cheese mixture evenly over each. Cover and chill. Unmold onto serving plates; peel off cheesecloth. Garnish with edible flowers, if desired. To serve, spread 1 tablespoon cheese mixture on each gingersnap.
