Wonderful treat...sweet yet with a touch of chocolate and yogurt. Great after dinner with a cup of expresso. :) Ingredients:
12 large ripe purple figs |
1 cup nutella (or chocolate spread of your choice) |
1 1/2 cups plain yogurt |
Directions:
1. Wash figs and pat dry.
2. Set aside.
3. Put Nutella in a warm place so it is easy to spoon.
4. Or place the jar in a bowl of very hot water.
5. Spoon Nutella into a clean, dry bowl.
6. Whisk in 1 cup yogurt until completely smooth.
7. One by one, dip each fig into the mixture, holding it by its stem.
8. Cover each fig completely or almost completely with a thin coating.
9. Place on a large plate lined with wax paper.
10. Refrigerate until very cold.
11. Serve a few tablespoons of plain yogurt alongside.
12. This looks great presented on a beautiful plate with fresh fig, grape, or lemon leaves.
13. Serve immediately with a fork and a knife.
14. **NOTE: If you don't feel like dipping the figs, you can serve them whole with a ramekin of the sauce on the side, or cut the figs in half lengthwise and generously drizzle with the sauce.**
