Fig Tarts with Honey and Mascarpone

Serves 6

Ingredients

4 Tablespoons 
1/3 cup lite cream cheese
1 tablespoons fat free sour cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
12 figs
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon powdered sugar

Method

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Cut the top and bottom on the first fig and then slice diagonally across the top three times to form six slices, do not cut all the way through.  Repeat for the remaining figs and fan the slices to form a sort of fig flower.  Combine the lemon juice and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of honey and sprinkle over the figs.  Combine cheeses, cream, vanilla and two teaspoons of honey and mix until smooth, set aside.  Bake figs for 8 minutes, or until soft.  Serve figs warm with one or two teaspoons of the cheese topping.
