It combines the sweetness of the figs with the creaminess of the mascarpone cheese and then the crunchiness of the puff pastry.
no, it does not taste like labneh, but if you can't find mascarpone then use cream cheese or creme fresh

Mascarpone is a buttery cream cheese that tastes very smooth and amazing, it is used to fill canoli's and to make tiramisu but also goes great with other desserts. I also love to put it on toast and pumpkin jam :)
