Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Medjool dates
- 4 ounces Goat cheese
- 12 pieces Fresh basil leaves
- 6 slices Prosciutto
- 12 pieces Toothpicks
Instructions
Slice each Medjool date lengthwise on one side and remove the pit, creating a pocket for the filling.
Using a small spoon or piping bag, stuff each date with about 1 teaspoon of goat cheese. Make sure not to overfill.
Place one fresh basil leaf on top of the goat cheese in each stuffed date.
Cut each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise so you have 12 thin strips. Wrap one strip of prosciutto around each stuffed date, securing everything together.
Secure the wrapped date with a toothpick to keep it intact and to make serving easier.
Arrange the prepared stuffed dates on a serving platter and serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
