So far, this is good on apple slices and English muffins. :) Easy to make, too! Reviewed for Healthy Choices ABC tag game.

I doubled this recipe & used the more moist, chewy Medjool dates along with cashews & made AN EXTREMELY TASTY SPREAD that we enjoyed on both toasted English muffins as well as on a flavorful & heavy whole wheat bread! Thanks for a great recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed as part of my Have a Date theme in My-3-Chefs]
