Puff Pastry:
- 1 thawed sheet puff pastry (13.2 oz) – I use Jus-Rol brand and love it!
Fig Filling:
- 1/2 cup fig preserves

- 4–5 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 2 tbsp light brown sugar

- Chilling the rolled log helps in easier slicing.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar based on preference.
