1 8-ounce (4 1/2-inch-diameter) firm Camembert cheese with rind

1 cup ruby Port
1 cup dried black Mission figs, halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
Chopped fresh chives
1 French bread baguette, sliced into rounds, lightly toasted

  • Brush Camembert on all sides with egg, then coat with breadcrumbs. Place on foil-lined plate and cover.
