I can honestly say, this is the best appetizer that I have ever made. Often, when I am creating recipes, they come from a combination of what I have left in the refrigerator. That is exactly what happened here; I had dates, whipped cream and pistachio. With those ingredients, I stuffed the dates with the whipped cream , topped with a raw almond, and pistachio So sweet, creamy, crunchy and overall yummy.
This appetizer is perfect for everyday gatherings or your holiday spread. It is ready in less than 30 minutes
Creamy Stuffed Dates are the perfect combination of sweet, creamy and crunchy. Ready in 30 minutes, this appetizer is yummy and tasty

1

For 🍫 dates
Wash, deseed, and dry dates completely. Roast almonds and keep aside. Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil on a double broiler. You can try microwave too but I don't know how well that'd work. While that's melting, stuff your dates with roasted almonds. Next, dip the stuffed dates either half way or all the way into chocolate. Once it has a good coating, move to a tray and sprinkle pistachio, coconut or your choice of nuts. Keep in the fridge. They taste best when chilled! 😋
