Stuffed Dates

Directions

1. Dates will not require soaking, but should be washed and dried thoroughly.
2. Remove the stones with a sharp knife and refill the dates with nuts, crystallized ginger, fondant, peanut butter, or cream cheese, made into small rolls after seasoning with a little salt and paprika.
3. When nuts, ginger, or fondant are used, roll the dates in powdered sugar and serve as a confection.
4. Cheese dates or nut-butter dates may be served with a salad or after dinner with crackers.
