Ingredients
Devils on Horseback:
12 dates
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
12 almonds, toasted
4 slices bacon
Cucumber Sandwiches:
8 slices white bread
1/2 cup cream cheese
1/2 English cucumber, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and cracked black pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees . Stuff each date with one almond and a few bits of blue cheese, then wrap each date with 1/3 a slice of bacon. Place on a baking sheet and roast in the oven until bacon is crisp, about 8 minutes. Cut the crusts off each piece of bread, using a rolling pin to flatten each slice. Spread cream cheese evenly on one side of each slice of bread, top 4 pieces of bread with cucumber slices, and season with salt and pepper followed by remaining slice of bread. Cut into triangles and serve along with devils on horseback and a strong cup of black tea.
