Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

24 large dried Medjool dates with pits (14 ounces)
6 ounces sharp blue cheese, such as Bleu d'Auvergne
1/4 pound thinly sliced prosciutto (8 to 10 large slices)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • With a small paring knife, slit each date lengthwise and spread open just enough to remove the pit while leaving the date intact. Fill the cavity of each date with a small piece of blue cheese and fold the date over the cheese, pressing it back into its original shape.
  • Cut a strip of prosciutto as wide as each date is long and wrap it around twice, enclosing the date almost completely. Place the dates on a sheet pan and bake for about 8 minutes, until the prosciutto is browned and the cheese starts to melt.
  • Cool slightly and serve warm.

The prosciutto adds a nice salty touch to the dish. It's the perfect balance to the sweetness of the dates.
