My mom made them every Christmas from a recipe passed down to her from my grandparents who lived in Ventimiglia di Sicilia.

But I have thousands of Fresh Figs in August & finding good recipes is not easy. Can we use Freshly Picked Figs?
If Yes, what changes are needed in the recipe? Thanks 🙏🏼

Looks delicious! I want to make your recipe, but don’t know how much dark chocolate you’re using, and is it sweet Marsala or dry? Merry Christmas!

Hello Joanne, the recipe says a few squares of dark chocolate it depends on your personal taste. Marsala can be also dry or sweet.
