Fig-Prosciutto Bites
Description
This impressive fig and prosciutto appetizer with honeyed goat cheese and fresh basil is the perfect sweet-salty-savory bite to have with crackers.
Ingredients
•
4 ounces honey-flavored goat cheese
•
3 ounces prosciutto
•
2 fresh figs, thinly sliced
•
2 leaves fresh basil, cut into thin strips
•
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions
1
Place goat cheese on a sheet of plastic wrap. Top with another sheet of plastic wrap and use a rolling pin to flatten into a 4x8-inch rectangle.
2
Remove the top sheet of plastic wrap and cover goat cheese with slices of prosciutto, slightly overlapping the edges. Cover prosciutto with a new sheet of plastic wrap and flip both sheets over so the goat cheese layer is now facing up.
3
Remove top sheet of plastic wrap. Cover goat cheese evenly with figs, basil, and black pepper. Starting from the long edge, roll tightly to form a log. Wrap log in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
