Ingredients
Directions
- In a small bowl, stir the softened cream cheese and finely chopped walnuts until thoroughly combined.
- With a small sharp knife, cut a slit along one side of each date, being careful not to cut through to the other side. Gently fill each date with the cream cheese mixture using a spoon or piping bag, then press the sides together to close.
- Serve right away, or cover and chill in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve.
