Steps:
- If you are using thick cut bacon or pancetta lay the pieces on a grill or oven tray and cook till just softening. ( half cooked). Drain on paper and put aside. (if using prosciutto it doesn't need to be pre- cooked)
- Put the goat cheese, herbs and black pepper into a smallish bowl and mix well. If the mixture is very crumbly add a little cream till making a soft spoon-able paste.
- Cut the tops of the figs with a cross, making sure the cuts only go about halfway down the figs ( or they wont stay together).
- Push the base of the fig a little to open the cris crosses and using a teaspoon add just a little goats cheese to each one. Once they have all received a little cheese go back and top up a little if needed. They will not hold too much cheese. (1/2 to 1 teaspoon).Push the tops together gently to close up a bit.
- Wrap the figs in a piece of bacon or pancetta and secure with a toothpick. These can be left now till needed. Refrigerate if they will not be used within an hour.
- Bring back to room temperature before putting on the baking tray. Bake for 10 minutes or till the bacon is hot.
- Remove toothpicks and serve drizzled with balsamic and olive oil. Serve with extra basil leaves and praline

GOAT CHEESE-STUFFED FIGS WRAPPED IN BACON
This is another of the recipes that disappeared so quickly that I didn't get to take a photo of them....they are that good!! They have a little bit of sweet from the fig, some tang from the cheese, and salt from the bacon. A great balance of flavors! The aged goat cheese called for in this recipe is firmer than fresh and has a dry rind. Two of the kinds that work best in this dish are Bucheron and Pouligny-St. Pierre, both have just the right amount of tang.

BACON WRAPPED GOAT CHEESE
Our local supermarket sells this fantastic little appetizer which they make in neighboring France. Seasoned goat cheese is rolled up in bacon and baked until gooey and the bacon browned. Serve with Baguettes, or baked potatoes. Even my wife who won't come near goat cheese likes this recipe. Easy to whip up and makes a great party appetizer.

- Place in an aluminum foil boat, or a shallow glass pan (i.e. a pie tin).
