Stuffed Khoa Dates

Ingredients

16 -18 medjool dates

¼ cup cream cheese at room temperature

¼ block of Nanak khoya at room temperature

2 teaspoon milk

1 teaspoon honey

2-3 drops orange blossom/ rose water (optional)

¼ cup chocolate chip melted

1 teaspoon coconut oil

Powdered pistachio for garnish

Rose petals for garnish

Flake sea salt

Method to Prepare

Pit the dates by making a slit in the center of the date with a pairing knife, take the seed out.

To a small bowl add cream cheese, khoya, honey, orange blossom water (if using), and milk. Mix till it form a soft stick ball.

Fill a piping back fitted with a medium round tip with the cream cheese khoya mixture. Pipe the mixture into the pitted dates. Alternatively, you can spoon about 1 teaspoon mixture into the dates.

Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in the microwave or over a double boiler.

Drizzle on top of the dates. Alternatively, you can dunk the dates into the chocolate to fully cover it. It is best to do this over a wire rack placed on a parchment paper or baking tray. This allows excess chocolate to fall off and makes clean up easy.

When the chocolate is still wet top with pistachio powder, rose petals and seas salt.

Place in refrigerator for 15-20 minutes or until the chocolate is firm.
