Instructions

1. Soften the cheese at room temperature: about 30 minutes for goat cheese or hard blue cheese, 10 to 15 minutes for mascarpone.
2. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Cut each date lengthwise across the top with a paring knife and remove the pit.
4. Stuff each date generously with the softened cheese and press it lightly closed.
5. Cut each prosciutto slice into 3 lengthwise strips.
6. Wrap each date in prosciutto and place it seam side up on the baking sheet.
7. Brush the dates lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with fresh thyme.
8. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, until the cheese is soft and the prosciutto is lightly crisp.
9. Let the dates cool for about 5 minutes, then arrange them on a serving tray.
10. Drizzle lightly with honey and/or balsamic glaze, and serve warm within an hour.
