Last Sukkot someone served a simple but delicious treat on the community meal table. Hailey, Elijah and I all "lit up" when we tried it and it is so easy to remember!
Cream Cheese Stuffed Dates
Slit your date in half longways (like a boat), but not all the way through, remove the pit if it's not pitted. Shmear a glob of cream cheese in the center. If you really wanted to make it fany you could shave some dark chocolate on top. (But I never go to the trouble they are SO yummy this way!)
We also like to have dates on our Passover Table (with other Middle Eastern regional foods), so I thought I would share this little "trick" in case you might like to try it for something new. Enjoy!

Never would have thought to put those two together, hmmm... now I will have try this!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds very interesting, Pamela. I may just have to give this one a try:)
ReplyDeleteThank you!
This is one of our favorites but we hardly ever do it. Coming from the Southern California desert area, and Indio being the date capital of the U.S., we've tried a lot of date goodies. Something I created was a spin on cream cheese and dates: goat cheese, finely chopped pecans and a little maple syrup blended in the food processor then spread inside the dates. Heaven.
