Ingredients
Scale
Fresh Figs
For each fig you will be making, you will need:
1 Tablespoon Blue Cheese Crumbles
Salt, Pepper to taste
1 Dash of Hot Sauce (of Choice)
1 Slice of Bacon
1 Teaspoon Heavy Cream
garlic powder or minced garlic if you -want not necessary
Instructions
Remove stems from figs and slice cross-wise top down making a almost quartered but still in tact tear drop shape. (leave the bottom part together and cut open the top)
In a bowl, mix blue cheese, hot sauce, salt, pepper, and heavy cream to create a soft and combined pasty consistency. Don’t over-mix. It should still have body and resemble blue cheese crumbles but hold together.
Fill each fig with filling.
Wrap each fig with one bacon slice.
Bake in a 350* oven for 20 minutes. Or until bacon is crisp and cheese is melted.
Let sit after baking for a few minutes before serving.
