FIG DROP COOKIES
This is what I ended up with from playing with a recipe from a library book. I think they ended up pretty good. Sweet and chewy with texture from the fig and pecans. I plan to play with it more to see if applesauce can replace some of the butter and if less sugar can be added or if Splenda can be used. Feel free to try them how you like.

mahato.amardeep@gmail.comI had a hard time finding fresh figs, so I used dried figs instead. The cookies still turned out great, but I think they would have been even better with fresh figs.
