Ingredients
- 12 pieces dried figs
- 200 grams dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- 15 grams unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoons coarse sea salt
- 3 tablespoons chopped pistachios or almonds
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the dried figs. Using a sharp knife, make a small slit at the base of each fig, creating a cavity without cutting all the way through. Set the figs aside.
Step 2
In a heatproof bowl, combine the dark chocolate, unsalted butter, and heavy cream.
Step 3
Place the bowl over a saucepan filled with simmering water (double boiler method). Stir gently until the chocolate and butter are fully melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Step 4
Remove the bowl from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each fig cavity with the melted chocolate mixture until it is slightly overflowing.
Step 6
Sprinkle a pinch of coarse sea salt and a few chopped pistachios or almonds on each filled fig while the chocolate is still warm.
Step 7
Place the filled figs on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the chocolate is fully set.
Step 8
Once the chocolate has hardened, transfer the figs to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately.
