Ingredients

  • 6 fresh figs

  • 2 tablespoons mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • ¼ cup blanched slivered almonds

  • ½ fluid ounce orange liqueur

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. 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.)

  3. In a small mixing bowl, combine chocolate chips, almonds, and wine. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the stuffing mixture into each fig half.

  4. Bake on a cookie sheet for 10 minutes.
