These little appetizers are called 'devils' because the dates are dark. 'Angels on Horseback' uses water chestnuts instead of the dates, but I don't think they are as flavorful. You can make them ahead of time, then broil just before serving.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 12 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 package whole pitted dates
- 1/2 cup cubed Asiago cheese
- 8-10 slices bacon, cut crosswise into thirds
Preparation:
Stuff dates with a piece of the cheese. Wrap one of the pieces of the bacon around each stuffed date and secure with a toothpick if necessary. Place on broiler pan with a rack.Preheat broiler. Broil bacon wrapped dates 4-6" from the heat source for 9-12 minutes, turning twice during cooking time, until bacon is crisp; don't let it burn! Let stand for 5 minutes, then serve.
