Roasted Chevre, Honey and Walnut Stuffed Figs

Ingredients

• 12 large, fresh figs
• 8 ounces chevre, softened
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
2. Mash the chevre up in a bowl until it has a soft, creamy consistency. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip with the chevre. Set aside.
3. Trim the stems off of the figs and make 2 or 3 criss cross cuts two thirds of the way down each one.
4. Pipe about a teaspoon of chevre into the center of each fig, and fit snugly onto a small baking sheet or dish. Sprinkle the walnuts on top of the figs, and drizzle all over with the honey.
5. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the figs are very soft and the chevre is bubbly and melted. Remove from the oven and drizzle with additional honey, if desired. Serve immediately or at room temperature.
