Steps:
- Prepare an ice bath; set aside. Place 3 tablespoons cold water in a large bowl, and sprinkle with gelatin. Let stand until gelatin has softened, about 5 minutes.
- Combine the cream and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add vanilla bean and scrapings. Gently simmer mixture until bubbles form around sides of pan, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and let cool slightly. Discard vanilla pod.
- Pour hot cream mixture into gelatin mixture, and whisk until combined. Set bowl in the ice bath. Let cool completely, stirring frequently. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve into a medium bowl. Divide among eight custard cups. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, and chill until set, at least 4 hours or overnight.
- To serve, remove the custard from refrigerator, uncover, and top each portion with two poached apricot halves.
