Prosciutto-Wrapped Figs with Gorgonzola

By Janet-2

Ingredients

• 9 large fresh black Mission figs, stemmed, halved
• 18 1x5-inch thin strips prosciutto (about 3 ounces)
• 3 tablespoons Gorgonzola cheese
• 18 large walnut pieces, toasted

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat broiler. Cover large rimmed baking sheet with foil.

Wrap each fig half with 1 prosciutto strip; place on prepared sheet. Broil until prosciutto chars slightly on edges, about 1 1/2 minutes. Turn figs; broil about 1 1/2 minutes longer, watching closely to prevent burning.

Place 1/2 teaspoon Gorgonzola atop each fig half. Top each with walnut piece. Serve warm or at room temperature.
