Dates Stuffed with Cream Cheese and Pecans,This is a recipe that my mother makes as a quick appetizer for special occasions. It may seem like an odd combination of flavors at first, but trust me, these can be addictive!,I had little time this morning to make my contribution for about 20 monks coming to the Tree Trimming Party tonight in our deanery at Saint John’s Abbey so I kept it quite simple. I split the dates and turned them all upside down.on a tray dusted with sugar. Then I filled each with cream cheese and a piece of California walnut. I arranged them on a bright serving dish and covered it with plastic wrap before putting them in the refrigerator until needed early this evening. –Bro. Richard osb.,I really thought the cream cheese could have been jazzed up for sure. Maybe mixed with a little honey and cinnamon, some nutmeg would have been nice too. Just thought it was missing a touch of sweetness and a little spice.
