Instructions: 1. Slice figs in half. In a small saucepan, melt piloncillo with a little water until a thin syrup forms. Add a stick of Mexican cinnamon, then add the figs. Slowly cook until figs are just tender. The syrup should slightly thicken around the fig slices, forming a compote. Serve warm or room temperature with your favorite vanilla ice cream.
