Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 fresh figs
2 tablespoons mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
¼ cup blanched slivered almonds
½ fluid ounce orange liqueur

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Cut each fig in half. (If you cannot find fresh figs and would like to use dried figs, cut a little opening in the top of the fig and make a pocket for the stuffing.)
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine chocolate chips, almonds, and wine. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the stuffing mixture into each fig half.
  • Bake on a cookie sheet for 10 minutes.
