This appetizer of prosciutto-wrapped dates stuffed with cheese offers a perfect balance of sweet, salty, and smoky flavors, making it unique and perfect for special occasions. For the cheese filling, combine mascarpone with equally creamy but more pronounced goat cheese. Finely chopped basil added to the cheese adds an even more vibrant flavor. Pitted dates are easy to stuff by slicing them open. To assemble, wrap the stuffed date in a thin slice of prosciutto and secure with a skewer or toothpick.
