Ingredients:

Serving

1 8- oz (4 1/2-inch- diameter ) firm camembert cheese with rind
1 large egg, beaten to blend
1 cup fresh breadcrumbs made from crustless french bread
1 cup ruby port
1 cup dried black mission figs , halved lengthwise
1 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp (1/4 stick) butter
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
chopped fresh chives
1 french bread baguette, sliced into rounds, lightly toasted

Directions:

Brush Camembert on all sides with egg, then coat with breadcrumbs. Place on foil-lined plate and cover.
Bring Port to simmer in heavy small saucepan over medium heat. Add figs; simmer until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer figs to small bowl. Add sugar to Port in pan; boil until reduced to thick syrup, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Pour syrup over figs. (Cheese and figs can be prepared 3 hours ahead. Refrigerate cheese. Let figs stand at room temperature.)
Melt butter in heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add Camembert and cook until breadcrumbs are brown and cheese is warm, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to platter. Top with blue cheese, figs and syrup. Sprinkle with chives and surround with toasts.
