Cheese Stuffed Bacon Wrapped Dates

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 lb. thinly sliced bacon
1 pkg. pitted dates
Your choice of cheese:  feta, goat, parmesan, cream cheese, blue (I used Feta)

INSTRUCTIONS:
Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Cut bacon in half.

Open the dates at the place where the pit was removed and stuff with cheese.

Wrap the dates with bacon and place on the baking sheet with the seam side down.

Bake for 15-25 minutes or until cooked to preference.  (I like mine crunchy and well done!  
But, we did leave some a bit more rare.)

Drain on paper towel.

Add fancy toothpicks for serving!

ENJOY!
