Source of Recipe


Internet


List of Ingredients




MAKES: 20 date halves; 8 to 10 servings

10 Medjool dates
1/4 cup soft cheese (see note above)
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup maple syrup


Recipe



1. Cut dates in half lengthwise and remove pits. Spoon about 1/2 teaspoon cheese into the cavity of each date half. Arrange dates on a serving plate.

2. Melt butter in a 1- to 2-quart pan over low heat, then increase heat to medium and cook until butter is foamy and starting to brown. Add nuts and stir constantly for 1 minute. Add syrup and reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Remove from heat.

3. Lift nuts from the syrup with a slotted spoon and press a few pieces into the soft cheese in each date. Drizzle syrup over the dates and serve warm.
