I have to Confess I have never cooked with dates before. I pulled out a few different ingredients that I had on had and my food processor and I started mixing. These were the most simple things to make. Once I frozen and had the chance to officially taste test, I was sold! Yes I will be creating more new recipe with dates. I can sense our options are unlimited, for new tasty treats. I hope you enjoy these as much as I have.
