Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 10 - 12 Dates
  • 1/2 cup Cream cheese
  • 1/2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp Rooh Afza
  • 4 tbsp roasted pistachios
  • 1/2 tbsp dried rose petals (optional)

Method
 

  1. In a bowl add in cream cheese, honey, Rooh Afza and mix well. I used a hand blender to blend the mix. Remove the pits from all the dates.
  2. Coarsely grind the pistachios in a mortar and pestle.
  3. Gently split each date so it breaks halfway open. Further, lay the dates on a plate.
  4. With a teaspoon, gently put a dollop of the Roof Afza cream cheese mix inside each date and squeeze it together, as if to close it up again
  5. Top off with pistachios and dried rose petals. Serve as a dessert or snack. This can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days.
