Chevre Fig butter

By LaurieGerber

Chevre, dried figs and butter make a heavenly spread for muffins or bagels

Ingredients

• 1 cup chevre (about 8 ozs)
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/4 - 1/2 cup dried black mission figs
• 2 T honey

Preparation

Step 1

Adjust quantities to your taste.

Trim tough stems from figs and roughly chop.

Mix all ingredients in a food processor till smooth. (Letting it run for a couple of minutes will heat the ingredients enough that they will blend smoothly. But you may want to scrape the sides and encourage large chunks to mix.)

Adapted form Gorgonzola Fig butter - garnish for filet steak (Katherine Emminger, Great News). Gorgonzola fig butter:
1/2 cup crumbled gorgonzola
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup chopped dried figs
2 T honey.
