Tiramisu-Stuffed Dates
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Slice dates lengthwise on one side, taking care not to slice all the way through. Using fingers, gently open dates so that the cavity is accessible.
-
Place espresso and cocoa powder each in a small shallow bowl. Fully submerge each date in espresso, then roll around in cocoa powder. Shake excess cocoa powder off. Set coated dates on a serving platter.
-
In a medium bowl, add mascarpone, heavy cream, confectioner’s sugar, and vanilla. Use a hand mixer on medium speed to beat until mixture is smooth, creamy, and lump-free.
-
Transfer mascarpone mixture to a piping bag and pipe mixture to fill date cavities (or use a small spoon to spoon mixture into cavities). Return dates to serving platter.
-
Using a small sifter, dust dates lightly with a little more cocoa powder.
-
Serve and enjoy!
