I've typically used hazelnuts for the crunch, but breadcrumbs sound like a tasty alternative. Wondering though if have you ever tried wrapping them in bacon, my personal favorite preparation, but what's not great wrapped in bacon? Looks muy yummy!

I've stuffed them with mascarpone cheese but have never done the bread crumbs on top; I'm sure I would love that little crunch and I know I would love the goat cheese. I was just at Happy Hour on Friday night with some friends and the restaurant I went to makes another easy and fabulous date appetizer. Same treatment to remove the pit but replace it with a whole pecan. Wrap the date in a slice of bacon (I'm imagining each slice is probably cut into thirds since it only went around the date a bit more than once to just overlap ends). Though served without a skewer I would probably toothpick the bacon to insure it does fall off! Grill the bacon dates until the bacon is crispy. Now I want a date night. No...not that kind! The food kind. These look fabulous!

Now all I need is a party excuse. I may try them with some beers as a substitute for the champagne, though. Will let you know. Those sound pretty yummy. Now all I need is a party excuse.

Good to add new ones to the mix, I'll save this to try. Totally agree–very easy to fall back on a few tried-and-true recipes for party appetizers.
