Ingredients

12 medjool dates, pitted

6 slices of prosciutto, halved lengthwise

¼ – ⅓ package Massimo’s spicy italian sausage meat (out of the casing)

Balsamic glaze

Optional: minced fresh rosemary for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Use a knife to cut the date lengthwise and remove the pit. Repeat for all dates (try not to cut through the whole date).
Stuff each pitted date with 2 tsp sausage meat. Close the date up around the sausage (don’t worry the dates won’t close the whole way, some of the sausage meat will be exposed). Then, wrap each date tightly with prosciutto. Place the wrapped dates on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 10 minutes and then flip each date. Bake for 8-12 more minutes, until the sausage meat is cooked through. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
Serve warm or at room temperature with a drizzle of balsamic glaze and minced fresh rosemary (if desired).

TIPS

To make more dates, simply double the recipe to make 24!
Pair with a crisp white wine like a Viognier or dry Reisling or a hearty red like Amarone or Merlot
