Stuffed Figs with Prosciutto - Serves 4

From: GardenBetty.com

INGREDIENTS

• 12 large figs
• 2 oz creamy goat cheese 
• 4 oz prosciutto 
• 1/8 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tbsp honey

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 400.  
2. Wash and de-stem the figs, then make an X-cut from the top of each fig to about three-quarters of the way down (do NOT cut through the figs completely).  Slightly pull the X apart to prepare for stuffing.
3. Fill each fig with a spoonful or knife-swipe of goat cheese.
4. Wrap a strip of prosciutto around each fig.  Arrange the figs in a shallow baking dish.
5. In a small cup, whisk together olive oil and honey until well blended.  Dribble the sauce evenly over the stuffed wrapped figs.
6. Bake for 10 minutes.  The cheese should be oozy and the figs juicy.
7. Top with freshly cracked pepper and serve!
