Balsamic Fig Cheese Spread

1. 1

   Add the balsamic vinegar and dried figs in a small to medium saucepan over medium heat. When the balsamic begins to bubble, lower the heat to a simmer. The balsamic vinegar will reduce to a thick syrup and the figs will become a bit plump because they're rehydrating.

2. 2

   Remove the rehydrated figs and any leftover balsamic syrup from saucepan, and allow to cool to room temperature.

3. 3

   When the rehydrated figs are at room temperature, place in a food processor and add the Neufchatel cheese. Process until well combined. Chunks of dried figs in the mixture are excellent, so do not over-process the mixture. The final mixture will have a delightful light purple hue to it.

4. 4

   Now smear on some rustic bread, toast or crackers! Enjoy over and over! Maybe share with friends!
