Ingredients

The following ingredients have 18 Servings
  • 18 Pitted Dates
  • about 2 ounces of Goat Cheese
  • 18 Almonds
  • 6 slices of Bacon
  • a pastry bag

Instruction

  • Let the goat cheese come to room temperature. Then place it in the pastry bag. Cut the slices of bacon into thirds.
  • Slice the dates open with kitchen sheers by cutting through the hole left from pitting the dates. (Most dates have a small hole through the center).
  • Open up the date and use the pastry bag to pipe goat cheese into the center of the date. Add an almond and close the date. Wrap a piece of bacon around the date. Continue assembling the dates, and place them on a parchment lined baking sheet with the seam of the bacon facing down.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes, until the bacon is crispy. Place the bacon wrapped dates on a paper towel to absorb any extra grease, then serve. You can assemble the bacon wrapped dates a day ahead.
