Ingredients

12 Large Medjool Dates - Halved or Pitted
4 Oz Cream Cheese - Softened
1/4 Cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
2 Tbsp Coconut Cream
1 Tsp Vanilla
1 Pinch Sea Salt
1/2 Cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut - Garnish

Directions

Slice each date lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Remove the pits and gently open the dates.
In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, coconut cream, vanilla, salt, and ¼ cup shredded coconut until smooth and fluffy.
Spoon or pipe about 1 tablespoon of the coconut filling into each date.
Lightly press the filled dates together, leaving the creamy center visible.
Roll or sprinkle the outside of each stuffed date with the remaining shredded coconut.
Arrange on a parchment-lined plate or tray and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
