The grilled cheese sandwich is a humble but tasty treat. But what if you could turn it into a sweet and savory masterpiece! Take some sweet figs, some gooey brie cheese and some salty prosciutto, put it between crunchy buttery toast, and you've got the grilled cheese from heaven. You can serve them as hot sandwiches at brunch, or as party hors d'oeuvres. They are good with wine, too.
