Ingredients

  • 16 dates pitted
  • 16 slices small very small matchstick of manchego cheese cut into the length of the dates
  • 4 slices prosciutto cut into quarters
  • 1/2 cup Cabernet
  • 1 1/2 tbsp honey
  • Pistachios for serving if desired

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare a baking sheet with a wired cooling rack on top of it.
  • Carefully pry open the date at it open slit and stuff in a piece of manchego cheese. Tightly wrap the piece of prosciutto around the date, making sure to fully cover the opening like a blanket. Plate onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 11-13 minutes, or until the prosciutto gets crispy and the cheese begins to slightly melt.
  • Meanwhile, add the Cabernet and honey to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until syrupy and thick.
  • Once the prosciutto dates are crispy, transfer them to the pan and toss in the wine syrup. Transfer to a serving tray or bowl with toothpicks, garnish with nuts and enjoy warm.
