Ingredients:

Serving

1 24 ct package mini puff pastry shells
1 medium-large white onion, finely sliced
3/4 cup fresh figs, diced (you may sub dried, but steam or soak first to plump)
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup crumbled gorgonzola
salt and pepper to taste
butter or oil for pan

Directions:

Bake pastry shells according to package's directions. Remove tops and allow to cool.
Meanwhile, heat a large heavy skillet with butter or oil over medium heat. Add onions and figs and season to taste with salt and pepper. Allow to cook 10-15 minutes without browning.
Once onions begin to turn golden, add vinegar and continue cooking 20-30 additional minutes, until sticky and caramelized.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Carefully stuff mini shells with onion and fig mixture. If desired, stuff a large crumble of bleu cheese in as well. Top with small crumbles of gorgonzola.
Bake shells another 5-7 minutes until pastry is golden and cheese is all lovely and oozy.
Serve immediately or allow to cool to room temp before serving.
