Ingredients

10 oz pitted dates

1 lb bacon (sliced in thirds)

6 oz chorizo sausage (raw casings removed)

Preparation

Using a scissors, cut one side of each date open and stuff with a scant teaspoon of chorizo. Wrap the stuffed date with bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake in 400 degree oven for about 15-18 minutes. Watch closely as the bottoms can burn easily due to the natural sugars in the dates.
