Bacon-Wrapped Cheese-Stuffed Dates

   Cut bacon strips in half widthwise. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until partially cooked but not crisp. Remove to paper towels to drain; keep warm.

2. 2

   Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of each date, being careful not to cut through completely. Fill each with 1/2 teaspoon cheese and 1 almond. Wrap with 1 piece bacon; secure with a toothpick.

3. 3

   Place in foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pans. Brush tops with honey. Bake at 375u00b0 for 9-11 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Sprinkle with pepper.
