20-30 pitted Dates 1 log of soft Goat Cheese 1 package of Bacon maple syrup toothpicks
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Get out a nonstick sheet pan, preferably with sides to avoid splatter from the bacon grease. Slice each date, making sure to cut an opening and not slice it all the way through in to two pieces. Fill each Date with soft goat cheese. Next, slice your bacon strips across horizontally to make Double the amount of 4-5 inch pieces. Wrap one piece of bacon around each Date approximately 1.5 times, securing with a toothpick.
Dip in maple syrup.
Place your sheet pan in the middle of the oven and bake for 10-15 mins, remove the sheet pan from the oven and slightly turn each date so that they are evenly browned. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional ten mins or until golden brown. Remove and eat warm!
