This tasty appetizer is sure to satisfy your sweet and savory craving in one go. Crispy and salty prosciutto, creamy goat cheese, and rich, caramel-flavored dates create an unforgettable combination that makes these small bites difficult to share. Dense enough to keep you going back for more, but light enough to couple with a deliciously dry Rosé.
