How to Make Bacon Wrapped Dates With Cheese
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut 6 slices of bacon in half crosswise, yielding 12 half-slices.
- Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until most of the fat renders out (about 5-7 minutes). Remove bacon and drain on paper towels.
- While bacon cooks, cut 12 Medjool dates in half lengthwise and remove pits.
- Cut 4 ounces of cream cheese into 12 small rectangles (approximately 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch).
- Place a piece of cream cheese into the open end of each pitted date.
- Wrap each cheese-filled date with a half-slice of cooked bacon, securing it with a toothpick.
- Arrange the bacon-wrapped dates on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the bacon is crisp and the dates are heated through.
