FIG CAKE II
This is a very moist cake that doesn't last long in my house. For a different taste, toast the pecans slightly. Dates can be substituted for figs to make a date cake.

FIG POUND CAKE
I love nibbling on dried figs. Found this recipe in an old cookbook and thought, why not. Must say I substituted half of the butter for applesauce to cut down on fat.

FIG AND ALMOND CAKE
Figs are baked into an almond batter for this rustic cake to have with coffee or tea. With figs, ripeness is everything. A ripe fig (the object of your desire) is soft, yielding, beginning to crack, nearly wrinkled. When you cut into it, the flesh is bright and juicy and the taste is ethereal.
