This is what I ended up making with some of my figs. Mine didn't look as pretty as this but it was really good. I would definitely make it again. Here's the recipe, if you're interested:
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons water
6 fresh figs, stemmed and quartered
1 (14 ounce) round 4 1/4-inch diameter round Brie cheese
1/2 cup toasted almonds
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 C).
Heat brown sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat until sugar is completely dissolved. Add figs and vanilla, and cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in almonds. Place brie wheel in a baking dish, and pour fig mixture over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until softened but not melted. Serve with crackers.

Sounds kind of weird. What did it taste like? Can you give me a comparison?
I'm with Nicole. Was it a meal or a snack? Or an appetizer?
I don't know how to describe how it tastes. I really like it. It's very rich, that's for sure. It wasn't a meal - I'd consider it for an appetizer or a dessert even.
