Bacon Wrapped Dates Recipe (with Video)

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400°.
2. Slice the dates through on one side, so you can open it fully, but the date stays as one piece.
3. Press an almond into a wedge of cream cheese, and stuff the cream cheese into the date.
4. Close the date around the cream cheese and set aside. Repeat steps 1-4 for all of the dates.
5. Slice the bacon strips into thirds.
6. Wrap a slice of bacon around the stuffed date, using a toothpick to keep the bacon on, and the date closed. Repeat for all of the dates.
7. Arrange on a baking sheet, and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the bacon is crispy.
8. Drizzle with Mike’s Hot Honey and serve!
Note
1. You can prepare the dates ahead of time by working through step 4, then storing the wrapped dates in an airtight container/bag until ready to use.
