- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
- 1 pinch Salt

Instructions
Wash and pat dry the fresh figs, then cut them in half lengthwise. Set aside.
Place the feta cheese, cream cheese, and heavy cream in a food processor or blender.
Mince the garlic clove finely and add it to the blender along with the olive oil, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Blend the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the consistency is too thick, add an additional teaspoon of heavy cream to adjust.
Transfer the garlic feta cream to a small serving bowl or piping bag for more precise presentation.
Arrange the halved figs on a serving platter, cut-side up.
Dollop or pipe a small amount of the garlic feta cream onto each fig half.
Drizzle the figs with the honey for a touch of sweetness.
