Ingredients

21 small to medium pitted dates

21 Land O Lakes® Gouda & Havarti Cheese Cubes, from 8-ounce bag

7 slices (3 ounces) prosciutto

1 tablespoon Land O Lakes® Butter, melted

Fresh thyme leaves, as desired for garnish

Balsamic glaze, as desired for garnish

How to make

STEP 1

Heat oven to 400°F. Line sheet pan with parchment paper.
STEP 2

Slice small pocket into each date; stuff each with 1 cheese cube—it’s okay if it isn’t fully enclosed. Cut each slice prosciutto lengthwise into 3 strips. Wrap each stuffed date with prosciutto strip, tucking edge under opposite side of open date. Place onto prepared sheet pan. Brush tops of dates with melted butter.
STEP 3

Bake 9-11 minutes or until prosciutto is crisp and begins to brown and cheese is melted. Let cool 1 minute before placing onto serving tray; garnish with thyme leaves and drizzle of balsamic glaze.
