Fig turnovers



Mom asked for figs and dark chocolate. I found both at Whole Foods and took her treats to her, we had a lovely visit. I got home and couldn't decide what to do with the rest of the figs; Whole Foods wouldn't sell me just one or two. I searched the internet and my cookbooks and settled on fig turnovers using the flavors and ingredients that jumped out at me from the recipes I did find. Puff pastry, fresh fruit, walnuts, honey, and a bit of chocolate. I made a variety including fig and cherry with chocolate, fig and apple with nutmeg and mace, fig and grape with balsamic, and some non fig turnovers for the boys who had no interest in figs. Served them with some mascarpone and candied walnuts.
