Dates Fourees

• 2 dozen medjool dates
• 2/3 cup marzipan
• 1 or 2 drops green food coloring

1. Select 2 dozen of the fattest, firmest medjool dates you can find.
2. Slit them down one side and remove the pit.
3. Mix the marzipan with the food coloring in a small bowl; the color should be a dark, not pastel, green.
4. Stuff each date with marzipan, allowing some to show through the slit.
5. Arrange the dates on a platter and serve.
