Goldens & Cherries Bacon Roll-Ups

1/2 to 3/4 c. boiling water

2 T. butter, melted

3/4 c. Sun-Maid Goldens and Cherries

2 c. herb-seasoned stuffing mix

1 egg, beaten

1/4 lb. ground beef

1/4 lb. ground hot sausage

1 lb. bacon slices, cut into thirds

Combine 1/2 cup boiling water, butter, Goldens and Cherries and stuffing mix in a large bowl. Gently stir until stuffing is thoroughly moistened, adding additional boiling water if needed. Add egg, ground beef and sausage; mix well. Shape mixture into oblong balls measuring about 3/4 inch by 1-1/2 inches. Wrap one piece of bacon around each ball and place seam-side down on a baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until bacon is crisp. Set aside on paper towels to drain. Makes 3-1/2 dozen.

Maple-flavored bacon or pepper bacon give a really nice change of taste to this recipe!
