1/2 cup of melted butter or margarine
3 eggs, well beaten
1 1/2 cups of chicken broth
1/2 cup of crisp bacon, crumbled
1 1/2 cups of dried figs, chopped
12 whole figs

Mix together stuffing, melted butter, eggs, chicken broth, bacon and chopped figs in a bowl. Spoon the mixture into 12 greased muffin cups. Top each muffin with a whole fig. Bake in a preheated 350ºF.  oven for 30 - 35 minutes or until firm. (Cover muffins with foil if figs brown too quickly.)

These muffins may also be frozen. When ready to use, unwrap and heat, covered lightly in preheated 350ºF.  oven for 30 - 35 minutes.
