Ingredients
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut Manchego into 21 slivers small enough to fit inside dates. Stuff 1 almond and 1 sliver of cheese into each date. Wrap a bacon piece around each stuffed date and place on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Step 2
Bake for 10 to 15 min. until bacon is crisp. Meanwhile, whisk balsamic vinegar, sugar, and Bohemian Forest in a small saucepan over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Simmer until thickened, 5 to 10 min., stirring frequently so it doesn't burn.
Step 3
Arrange bacon-wrapped dates on a platter and drizzle with balsamic syrup.
