Dates with marzipan filling in dark chocolate
Ingredients
- 12 large, juicy Medjool dates
- 1 tsp grated orange zest

Preparation
Knead the marzipan with the orange zest and divide into 12 pieces. Cut the dates lengthways and remove the stones. Shape the marzipan into a ‘stone’ and fill the dates with it.
