Ingredients:

• 8 dates, pitted
• 1 ounce Gorgonzola cheese
• 1 thin slice prosciutto

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Cut prosciutto into 8 narrow strips. Break cheese into 8 small chunks. Slice the top of each date open, careful not to slice all the way through. Fill each date with a small piece of cheese and then wrap the prosciutto around the date. Place on a baking sheet, cut side up.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until prosciutto is crisp.

Serves 2.

Substitutions:

This was my own concocted recipe based on an appetizer I had at a Meditteranean restaurant. I have seen other recipes that use different cheeses and bacon instead of prosciutto.
