Roasting fresh figs for about ten minutes in a 400 degree oven allows them to carmelize and really intensifies the fruits natural sweetness. By brushing them with a few tablespoons of good bourbon first, the complimentary flavors of vanilla, oak, and maple, just adds more depth to the mouth-watering taste. To balance all the sweet, top with a bit of tart cheese, like chevre, and wrap with thinly-sliced salty prosciutto. These tasty bites are quick and easy to make, and are great for fall and winter parties and gatherings. Enjoy!
