Description
Dates are stuffed with blue cheese, wrapped in bacon and baked until crisp. These are delicious and very easy to make for a party. You can serve them at room temperature, so it is okay to make a few hours in advance!
Ingredients
- 1 pound sliced bacon, cut in half
- 1 pound pitted dates
- 4 ounces blue cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Slice dates in half
- and open them up. Pinch off pieces of blue cheese
- and place them into the center of the dates. Close the halves of the dates
- and wrap a half-slice of bacon around the outside. Secure each one with a toothpick. Arrange in a baking dish or on a baking sheet with sides to catch any grease.
- Bake for 30 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven
- or until the bacon is crisp. Turn dates over after the first 20 minutes for even cooking.
