Devils on Horseback
Devils on Horseback are a less genteel spin-off of a British hors d'oeuvre called Angels on Horseback (oysters wrapped in bacon), both of which are cousins of the better-known Pigs in a Blanket. This is a very easy recipe to make.
Ingredients
- 15-20 Pitted dates or Prunes
- 3.5 oz Bravado Spice Ghost Pepper & Blueberry Hot Sauce optional
- 1/2 cup Crumbled gorgonzola or blue cheese
- 1/4 cup Slivered almonds
- 1/2 lb Bacon or Prosciutto
- 1/2 cup Maple syrup or Balsamic Glaze
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the gorgonzola, almonds, and 2.5 oz of the Bravado Spice Ghost Pepper & Blueberry Hot Sauce.
- Slice the dates halfway open so they can be stuffed with the cheese mixture, then proceed to stuff the dates.
- Separately, mix the remaining ounce of Bravado Spice Ghost Pepper & Blueberry Hot Sauce with the maple syrup.
- Cut the slices of bacon in half and wrap each date in a half slice.
- Place the wrapped dates seam side down on a baking sheet and brush generously with the maple syrup or balsamic glaze.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes at 400°F or until the bacon is completely cooked and slightly crispy. Remove toothpicks.
- Wait 5 minutes or until cool and serve.
