Apple-Fig Sauce With Whipped Cream

1. 1

   Stir together the apples, figs, cinnamon sticks, ginger ale and schnapps in a large stockpot. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to a simmer over low heat and cover. Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently and removing from the heat when apples become soft. Stir in the honey, sugar, ground nutmeg and ground cinnamon. Remove the cinnamon sticks and discard.

2. 2

   While the apples are cooking, make the whipped cream by pouring the cream into a standing mixing bowl. Whisk on high until cream thickens and forms stiff peaks. Add the sugar and continue to mix for 30 seconds. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

3. 3

   Transfer the apple mixture to a food processor. Pulse until you have reached a slightly chunky sauce. Let cool for 2 minutes then spoon into dessert bowls and top with a large dollop of whipped cream and a touch of freshly grated nutmeg.
