👨🍳 Method
- 1
Slit the dates lengthwise and carefully scoop out the pits.
- 2
Mix the cheese with the salt until smooth.
💡Room-temperature cheese mixes smoothly and goes into the date easily; cold cheese straight from the fridge tears and leaves lumps.
- 3
Fill each date with a teaspoon of cheese.
- 4
Top the cheese with a few nuts and press lightly.
- 5
Arrange on a serving plate, drizzle the honey over the top and garnish with thyme, and serve at room temperature.
