An easy, rich and fudgy almost-flourless cake from Yossi Arefi's Sweeter Off the Vine. It's better to underbake slightly than overbake this cake. If it's a little looser than you like, simply refrigerate it for a few hours so it firms up enough to slice but doesn't lose it's phenomenal gooey brownie texture.
*12 ounces should be able 9 fresh figs, although I was not able to fit all 12 ounces on top of my cake.
