Fig Tartlets with Orange Mascarpone

Unless I’m entertaining, desserts tend to be the last thing on my mind. If you’re like me, all you’ll want to do is have a nice main course, then fall asleep halfway through a movie. But this dessert is so simple to make and so more-ish, it might even give you the impetus to stay awake through the other half of that movie. Or, try this with thinly sliced pears, peaches, plums, apricots or apple instead of the figs.
