Ingredients:
4 oz package of blue cheese
8 oz package whole dates
16 oz package of bacon * Cut bacon in half and then long ways if it is big enough. I wrapped 2 to 4 dates using one slice of bacon.
Optional: fresh grated black pepper
Directions
To cook immediately preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
Place each date on the cookie sheet leaving an inch between dates.
Sprinkle with a little black pepper if desired.
Bake 15 to 25 minutes depending on how well done you like bacon.
Serve hot – but they are still delicious at room temperature if they last that long.
To freeze, put wrapped dates in a single layer in a large baggie and freeze.
Thaw partially to bake.
