Ingredients
- 8 lices Bacon I find that thin bacon works better
- 16 dates
- 4 ounces goat cheese
- Toothpicks
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with heavy duty foil.
- Slice the dates lengthwise on one side to create an opening. Remove the pit.
- Using a spoon, stuff a small amount of goat cheese into the cavity of each date and press the sides together to close.
- Cut the bacon slices in half. Wrap each date with a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
- Arrange evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes at 400 F oven. Remove from the oven, place on a paper towel lined plate, and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Don't use thick cut bacon to wrap the dates. It will take too long to cook through and crisp up.
- You can serve the dates with or without the toothpicks.
- Leftover bacon wrapped dates can be stored in the fridge for 3 days. Reheat them at 350F for around 7 minutes until heated through and the bacon is crisp.
