Figs Stuffed with Gorgonzola

And another fig post. I have been keeping an eye out for fig recipes and when this one for "Parmesan Stuffed Figs with Balsamic Reduction" was posted, I tried it right away. I still had some gorgonzola cheese so I replaced the parmesan with the gorgonzola. This one was pretty good. I was a bit worried that the figs would get too cooked before the cheese melted but the cheese melted and the figs were not too warm. The balsamic reduction added a nice sour and sweet touch.

Ingredients:
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
figs
gorgonzola cheese
prosciutto

Directions:
1. Simmer the balsamic vinegar in a small sauce pan until it reduces to half the original volume.
2. Slice the figs open on the top.
3. Stuff a piece of gorgonzola cheese into the sliced open fig.
4. Broil the figs until the cheese melts, about 4 minutes.
5. Place the figs onto the serving dish and drizzle some of the balsamic reduction onto them.
6. Add some slices of prosciutto to the serving dish.
