Figs in Port Wine Sauce with Warm Camembert
A sophisticated yet simple appetizer. The warm creamy cheese spread over toasted French bread and topped with a spoonful of the figs, is a memorable combination.

1 cup ruby Port
1 cup dried Mission figs (found in raisin aisle), halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons GOLDEN BLOSSOM HONEY
1 loaf French baguette, sliced and lightly toasted
