These were delicious!! However, I didn't realize there was a pit in them until they were already stuffed. Don't forget to take the pits out!! I will be making these again. YUM!!

This is very tasty and easy to make. I substituted cream cheese with blue cheese and it was wonderful.

I made these for my sons grad party. They were a huge hit! I didn't tell people there were dates in them---they were pleasantly surprised. I left out the cream cheese-too much work and they still were great.

The reviewer who wrote about the 8 minutes per side + 2 minutes per side on broil is exactly right. That timing made them perfect. This is an excellent appetizer that would be a huge hit at a party. They look like a caterer made them, yet only took 5 minutes to assemble.

mmmmm...so good!! And I absolutely agree - search out the Medjool dates, they make a huge difference in both taste & texture!!! Make extras (like a double batch..., so when you eat a few before the party, your plate won't end up short.

My friends and I loved the marriage of flavors in this appetizer. Sweet and salty and smokey. Don't arrive to the party late, or you won't get any. I had to make a double recipe

Very nice recipe, takes some work but not hard. Found nice-sized Medjool dates at Trader Joes along with the almonds and their thick-cut, Applewood bacon. Once dates were pitted, not hard to stuff with almonds/cream cheese and wrap em up. Only tricky parts was slicing the cream cheese and I did a combo bake/broil session. 7 minutes a side of baking to render fat and then a couple of minutes a side to crisp up the bacon. Give or take.

But yeah, warm, rich and delicious treat, most people let out a little moan when they bit into these bad-boys...

Absolutely delicious! I can't believe I waited to try this recipe! I did cook the bacon for 8 minutes on the first side and 7 on the second and was cooked through for me.

Fantastic! Made for Christmas Eve buffet for the family and they all loved them. Word of warning: DOUBLE the recipe, you'll not regret it!

These are unbelievable. However there is one problem. After you serve this dish, you'll be asked to make it by everyone who tastes it. I've now taken to copying the recepie, and leaving it on the table next to the dish!!!!
