It's been raining and I have also been having contractors over for home repairs that I can't do. Today I stayed in and rested. I missed baking bread and cookies, so made these fig bars. Mission figs are one of my favorite flavors.
This recipe came from the Betty Crocker website, here. I followed that recipe as exactly as I could.
These came out very good. I think they need to sit overnight to mellow a bit. They are more figgy than a Fig Newton, very rich. A bit crumbly. I think this could be made in a blind baked pie crust, which would be a little less sweet, but hold together better, and the flavor would be something of a hybrid of pecan pie, shoo-fly pie, and figs.
