1 cup of ricotta
1/2 teaspoon of freshly grated or powdered nutmeg
2 teaspoons of granulated white sugar

3 firm but ripe figs, sliced in quarters
2 teaspoons of brown sugar
12 Cabaret or Vinta crackers

Preparation:

In a small mixing bowl, add the ricotta, nutmeg, white sugar and cinnamon. Stir to combine. Arrange figs on a baking sheet covered with a piece of aluminum foil.
