Fig Bars

  Nabisco's Fig Newtons were my introduction to figs.  They were my favorite sweet treat from the grocery store as a child and I could easily eat half the package in one sitting; the other half wouldn't last long after.  I don't remember my sisters ever being as fond of them as I was but boy, did ...

Fresh Fig Galette

  This is the fig galette that I had planned to serve to friends recently.  But time being scarce that day, I made these stuffed figs instead, a tasty answer to my call for a shortcut dessert.  Not having grown up eating fresh figs, I am still discovering all that this ancient fruit has to ...

Chocolate Mascarpone-Stuffed Fresh Figs

  After being MIA from the kitchen for most of the summer, you can't blame a girl for having food on her mind in a big way.  I've begun to dream about food again.  Cookbooks are once again keeping company with other reading material on my nightstand.  My mind is mostly on new cakes and other ...
