I’m working with IFANCA (Islamic Food and Nutrition Council) on their upcoming Halal and Healthy workshops around the Chicagoland area where I’ll be conducting food demos on four different recipes, all super simple and all using halal-certified products.
These uber delicious Medjool dates stuffed with almonds and topped with melted chocolate and pistachios are just just one of four recipes I’ll be making and our audience tasting at each workshop.
If you can’t be at any particular workshop, you can still enjoy the flavors, the simplicity of the process and see which halal-certified products can be used to make it.
For more information about the locations, dates and times of the workshops, please visit the IFANCA Facebook or Twitter pages. Of course I’ll be sharing on the My Halal Kitchen Facebook and Twitter pages, too. We’d love to see you in person!
- 20 large Natural Delights Medjool dates
- 1 small bag Awesome raw almonds
- 1 small bag Awesome pistachios, chopped
- 1 Dark Chocolate Almond Godiva bar, 72% cacao (225 grams), melted
- Wash and dry the dates and remove any pits, but do not break the dates apart. Stuff each date with just one almond.
- On a serving platter, arrange the stuffed dates.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the entire bar of chocolate, stirring continuously to prevent burning.
- Once the chocolate is completely melted, immediately drizzle over the dates then add a few chopped pistachios to the top. Serve immediately.
- If make-ahead preparation is necessary, stuff the dates and keep refrigerated. When ready to make and serve, remove the dates and bring to room temperature. Melt the chocolate and finish the recipe as instructed.
