Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

6 tb Butter, at room temp -(1 1/2 lb ea)
1/3 c Chopped prosciutto 1 1/2 c Canned chicken broth
5 ts Rosemary, chopped 1 c Low-fat mayonnaise
2 1/2 ts Dijon mustard 3 tb Apricot fruit spread
3 Cornish game hens 1 bn Watercress

Preheat oven to 400F. Combine butter, 3 tbs proscuitto, 2 tsp
