Ingredients  

  • 16 Medjool Dates (pitted)
  • 1 cup Full Fat Cottage Cheese
  • 2 oz Cream Cheese (softened)
  • 2 tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 2 tbsp Crushed Graham Crackers
  • 1/3 cup Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 1 tsp Coconut Oil
  • 1 pinch Flaky Sea Salt

Equipment

  • blender

Instructions 

  • Blend the cottage cheese, cream cheese, maple syrup, vanilla extract and lemon juice until thick and completely smooth. Chill the filling for 30 minutes so it firms up like cheesecake.
  • Gently tear each date open along one side so it forms a little pocket.
  • Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling generously into each date.
  • Sprinkle the crushed graham crackers over the filling for that cheesecake crust flavor.
  • Melt the dark chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 20 second bursts, drizzle over the dates and finish with a pinch of flaky sea salt.
  • Freeze for 15-20 minutes so the chocolate sets, then serve. Store leftovers in the fridge.
