Prosciutto Wrapped Blue Cheese Stuffed Dates
We gave traditional bacon wrapped dates, aka devils on horseback, a major makeover. Each date is stuffed with a combination of cream cheese and blue cheese crumbles for a creamy, flavor-packed filling. Once stuffed, the dates are wrapped in thin slices of prosciutto. Each date is then lightly brushed with maple syrup to aid in crisping the prosciutto and to add a layer of earthy sweetness. This dish is the perfect appetizer for your next gathering.
