DEVILS ON HORSEBACK

Don't let the sinister name throw you -- these bacon-wrapped dates couldn't be more delicious. Martha takes them to the next level by stuffing the dried fruit with pungent Stilton.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Yield Makes 24

Number Of Ingredients 3

24 large dates, pitted
12 slices bacon, halved crosswise
1/3 cup crumbled Stilton cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place 24 toothpicks in a small bowl filled with water; let soak 15 minutes. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and fit with a wire rack; set aside.
  • Halve dates lengthwise being careful not to cut all the way through. Place a small amount of cheese in the center of each date. Wrap a piece of bacon around each date. Secure bacon with a toothpick.
  • Place dates on prepared baking sheet. Bake until bacon is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a high-quality blue cheese that is sharp and flavorful. A good choice is a Danish Blue or a Gorgonzola.
  • If you don't have wooden skewers, you can use metal skewers or even toothpicks. Just be sure to soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using, to prevent them from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the skewers. Leave a little space between each one so that the bacon can cook evenly.
  • Cook the skewers over medium heat. This will help to prevent the bacon from burning and will allow the cheese to melt slowly and evenly.
  • Serve the skewers immediately, while the cheese is still melted and gooey.

Conclusion:

Blue Cheese Bacon Devils on Horseback is an easy and delicious appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
