Description
No offense to Newton, but these homemade fig bars are jammier and more buttery than anything you'll find in a package — and they're surprisingly simple to make. The filling is nothing more than dried figs soaked in hot water and blended smooth (no cooking required), while the soft but sturdy dough is simply stirred together and pressed into the pan. These fig bars are equally at home in a lunch box, in a hiking bag, or on a pretty platter at a get-together. For the neatest slices, chill thoroughly before cutting into pieces.
