Ingredients

• Medjool dates, remove the pits which will create a nice opening for the goat cheese
• Goat cheese, try to find one that is creamy for easy filling
• Honey
• Toasted chopped hazelnuts or pistachios

Directions

• Pre-heat the oven to 350F.
• Fill each date with goat cheese. If the goat cheese is creamy, I sometimes put it into a ziploc bag, snip a corner and pipe the goat cheese into the dates.
• Place each goat cheese filled date on a parchment or foil lined baking sheet and place the baking sheet into the pre-heated oven. Let the dates bake for about 10-15 minutes.
• As soon as you remove the dates from the oven, either transfer to a fancy platter or leave them on the baking sheet and then drizzle with a little honey. Top with crushed toasted nuts if you like.
• Serve immediately.
