MouCo Camembert and Fig Poppers

Bacon-wrapped figs stuffed with MouCo Camembert and basil, baked until crispy and gooey, then drizzled with balsamic—a salty-sweet appetizer that’s rich and ridiculously good.

This decadent appetizer is perfect for a romantic dinner or a special occasion. The figs are wrapped in bacon and baked until the bacon is crispy and the cheese is melted and gooey. The balsamic glaze adds a touch of sweetness and acidity that perfectly complements the flavors of the figs and cheese.
