For a vegetarian option, skip the bacon and wrap the dates in prosciutto instead. It crisps up beautifully under the broiler! If you can't find honey-flavored goat cheese, plain goat cheese works perfectly well. Just add a drizzle of honey to the goat cheese mixture. These can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before serving. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
