These tasted pretty good, but I don't think I will probably choose to make them again.

I love this recipe. For something very simple it comes out very elegant.

After reading others reviews I decided to use grape leaves and prosciutto. My subjects said the grape leaves had a strange tobacco taste from the grill, overall not great but not bad. The prosciutto was a bigger hit. They liked the mixture of sweet and salty. I also made a batch without any wrap. Pretty tasty!

These were so wonderful and I didn't even have fresh figs, had to use dried ones. I used dried Mission figs. I cut them in half, placed a ball of goat cheese on the cut side then wrapped it well in prosciutto (one of the few pork meats we eat on rare occasions). I drizzled honey over them and popped them in the toaster oven. They were sooo good and highly addictive! I can't wait for figs to be in season so I can try these with fresh figs. I thnk these would also be good with a cheese like Gorganzola, which I plan to try soon. Thank you for a wonderful recipe!

Wow! What a fantastic basic recipe. The weather was horrible, so I cooked these up over the stove and skipped the honey. Works great with fresh dates, too. My husband usually passes on goat cheese, but these tasty tidbits disappeared.

OMG--these are soooo good!! That said, let me tell you how I messed up making them. First, I didn't think to let the cheese come to room temp and when I attempted to pipe it into the figs I had to squeeze the bag so hard it broke! I tried microwaving it to warm the cheese, but the bag was so far gone, I gave up on trying to pipe it in. I cut them nearly in half, then spread the cheese on with a knife and squeezed them back together, which worked just fine. THEN I tried to grill them, but I think because the cheese was still a little cold it wouldn't melt before the figs started to get crispy. I took them off the grill and stuck 'em in the microwave (I forget how long--a minute maybe?). When they came out, I drizzled them with the honey and served them. After all of that, they were absolutely wonderful and worth every minute of work. Everyone at our dinner party loved them and I will definitely make them again, in one form or another!

I adapted this recipe recently for an culinary student cheese competition and came in 2nd place locally. The flavors were great and the presentation was beautiful. Unfortunately, there just was not enough cheese inside the figs. Hoping to squeeze 1TB of cheese inside was wishful thinking at best. :( In my version, I added chopped fresh thyme and cracked black pepper to the cheese, wrapped them in prosciutto and skewered them on rosemary stalks before grilling. For presentation, I served them on a bed of red-wine vinaigrette-dressed micro greens with a honey and balsamic reduction drizzle ;)

They were a big hit at a BBQ, without the grape leaves. Agree with the other reviews that honey made a fabulous addition. Easy to make. Little clean up. And D-lish!

I reeaaalllly wasn't sure about the goat cheese part of this recipe. I love figs, but wasn't sure how this would turn out. It's absolutely delicious! The goat cheese balances out the figs, and the honey drizzled on it adds the finishing touch. I didn't use the grape leaves and it was still phenominal!

As some other said: OUTSTANDING! I followed the advice of previous reviewers and used prosciutto to wrap the figs. I served them on a bed of arugula... I think I could have eaten the whole batch!

My family loved this and they are not the type to try things out of the ordinary. I didn't love the flavor of the goat cheese, the next time I made it I used dates and a more expensive brand of goat cheese and it was delicious.

Outstanding recipe! I didn't have grape leaves so I used prosciutto instead to wrap the figs. Also, I used fresh rosemary from my garden as skewers. I bet these are great broiled but grilling them was out of this world. The honey was a great finishing touch. I plan on making these for an upcoming Christmas party.

Quite tasty. I don't have a piping bag, grape leaves, or a grill, so I made fig "sandwiches" by cutting the figs part-way through and spreading goat cheese inside with a knife. Then I broiled them cut-side up. I stuffed walnuts inside after they came out and before topping with honey. One caution: don't use too creamy of a goat cheese. Mine got a little greasy with a triple creme cheese.

The grill was out of gas and I didn’t have grape leaves, so I broiled them on high (sans leaves) for 3 minutes with fabulous results.

Great combination of flavors. I didn't really follow the recipe but just cut a wedge in the figs, stuffed them with goat cheese, and placed them on the top rack of the grill for about 15 minutes. Very tasty.
