Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

24 slice good quality bacon
4 oz cream cheese
1/2 c whole milk ricotta cheese
1/2 tsp tabasco sauce
24 large sage leaves, fresh
48 large pitted prunes

Steps:

  • 1. Partially cook bacon slices in microwave for 1-1/2 minutes on full power. This renders the fat and begins to shrivel the bacon. Cool.
  • 2. Blend cream cheese, ricotta, tabasco and sage in a food processor until smooth and well blended. Using a small spoon or butter knife stuff cheese mixture into the prune openings. Round cheese on top of the prune opening.
  • 3. Cut bacon slices in half lengthwise and wrap each slice around a cheese stuffed prune.
  • 4. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place prunes on a baking sheet and bake for approx. 7 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Allow to cool for at least 5 minutes before serving (they will be extremely hot directly from the oven and can burn tongues!)
  • 5. Prunes can be prepared a couple of days in advance and refrigerated. Delicious!!

Tips:

  • Choose the right prunes. Look for large, plump prunes that are free of blemishes. Avoid prunes that are too dry or too soft.
  • Soak the prunes in hot water before wrapping them in bacon. This will help to soften them and make them more pliable.
  • Use a variety of fillings. In addition to cream cheese, you can also fill your bacon-wrapped prunes with nuts, dried fruit, or even chocolate chips.
  • Cook the bacon-wrapped prunes until the bacon is crispy. This will help to keep the prunes from becoming too soft.
  • Serve the bacon-wrapped prunes immediately. They are best enjoyed when they are hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Bacon-wrapped prunes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they are also a great way to use up leftover bacon. With a variety of fillings to choose from, there is sure to be a bacon-wrapped prune recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give bacon-wrapped prunes a try. You won't be disappointed!
