Whipped Goat Cheese With Warm Candied Bacon And Dates
  1. Preheat the oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. On the baking sheet, toss together the bacon, 1 tablespoon rosemary, the brown sugar, 1 teaspoon honey, and the cayenne. Arrange in an even layer. Tear the dates and scatter them around the bacon. Bake 8-10 minutes, until the bacon is crisping.

  3. Meanwhile, combine the goat cheese, cream cheese, olive oil, and a pinch of salt in a food processor and pulse until smooth and creamy. The goat cheese mix can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days, but bring to room temp before serving.

  4. In a small bowl, combine ⅓ cup honey, 1 tablespoon rosemary, a pinch of cayenne - to taste, and a pinch of salt.

  5. Spoon the goat cheese into a serving bowl and then top with the warm bacon and dates. Drizzle over a little the rosemary honey. Serve with bread or crackers.
