A terrific little appetizer that is smokey, sweet, and spicy. With only 3 ingredients what could be easier. I think this could also be made with andouille sausage tho I haven't tried it that way yet.
Ingredients:
10 ounces pitted dates
1 lb bacon, sliced in thirds
6 ounces chorizo sausage, raw, casings removed
Directions:
1. Using a scissors, cut one side of each date open and stuff with a scant teaspoon of chorizo.
2. Wrap the stuffed date with bacon and secure with a toothpick.
3. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake in 400 degree oven for about 15-18 minutes.
4. Watch closely as the bottoms can burn easily due to the natural sugars in the dates.
5. Makes about 45 pieces.
