- 2 cups Orchard Choice or Sun-Maid California Figs stemmed and chopped into 1/4" pieces
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup Port wine plus 1 tbsp
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 10 ounces dark chocolate chopped fine
- 3 tbsp Dutch processed cocoa powder sifted
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter cut into 3 pieces
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Bring figs, water, corn syrup, sugar, heavy cream, ¼ cup Port, and salt to simmer in small saucepan over medium heat; simmer, stirring frequently, until the liquid thickens and figs are softened, about 8 minutes. Transfer fig mixture to blender and process until smooth, about 1 minute. Using bottom of ladle and pushing in circular motion, strain puree through fine-mesh strainer into bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much puree as possible (you should have about 1 ½ cups puree). Discard the strained solids. Whisk butter, remaining 1 tablespoon Port, and vanilla into the fig puree.
Microwave the chocolate, whisking often, until melted and smooth, 1 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the cocoa until dissolved. Add chocolate mixture to fig puree and stir until smooth. Serve warm.
