Ingredients
60g soft goats’ cheese
50g light soft cheese
20g walnuts, chopped
¼tsp chopped thyme leaves, plus extra to serve
12 Extra Special Medjoul dates
100g Italian smoked prosciutto
Method
1
In a bowl, stir together the goats’ cheese (this can be swapped for soft blue cheese, if you like) and light soft cheese until smooth.
2
Stir in the chopped walnuts and chopped thyme leaves until combined, and season with freshly ground black pepper.
3
Carefully slice down the sides of dates and remove the stones. Use a teaspoon to fill each date with a little of the soft cheese and walnut mixture.
4
Take the prosciutto and cut each slice in half. Wrap a piece of prosciutto around each stuffed date, securing with a cocktail stick, if you like.
5
Cover and keep in the fridge until ready to serve sprinkled with more thyme leaves and freshly ground black pepper.
