Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.

While oven is preheating, add cream cheese, Manchego cheese, heavy whipping cream and garlic to a blender. Pulse until smooth and season to taste.

Using a spoon or small offset spatula, stuff dates with a little cheese mixture and press to seal.

Tightly wrap each date with a piece of cut bacon and secure with a toothpick if needed. Place on prepared pan in rows.
