Instructions

  • 1. In a small saucepan, whisk together all fudge ingredients until well combined.
  • 2. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Set aside.
  • 3. Slice the dates open lengthwise and make sure the pits are removed (sometimes not all the pits are removed). Place them on a tray or plate.
  • 4. Using a teaspoon, fill the inside of each date with peanut butter, some caramel sauce (if using), and chopped peanuts.
  • 5. Drizzle the fudge sauce over the dates.
  • 6. Place the stuffed dates in the freezer for at least 30 minutes. The longer they remain in the freezer, the better the consistency.
