Date Shake Recipes

Steps:

• In a microwave-safe dish, combine dates and water; microwave, covered, on high for 30-45 seconds or until dates are softened. Cool completely., Place date mixture in a blender; cover and pulse until pureed. Add ice cream and milk; cover and process until blended. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a blender, combine dates and milk at low speed until dates are completely broken up.
• Add remaining ingredients and process at high speed until the mixture is smooth, with bits of the dates visible. Pour into iced glasses.

Steps:

• Add the milk, vanilla ice cream, vanilla paste, dates, banana and 4 ounces bourbon to a blender. Blend on high until well mixed and smooth.
• Divide evenly among 4 chilled glasses, adding about 1/2 ounce bourbon "float" atop each shake.
• Finish with the whipped cream and serve immediately with a milkshake or bubble tea straw.

Steps:

• For each date shake, place 1/4 cup coarsely chopped pitted dates, a handful, in a blender. Add 1 cup cold skim milk and 2 big scoops of French vanilla ice cream. Grate 1/4 teaspoon of fresh nutmeg into blender and blend date shake until smooth.

Steps:

• In a blender, blend dates and milk until smooth and very frothy. Add ice cream and pulse a few times, until just blended.

Steps:

• Chop up the dates quite finely, until sticky. I recommend: First halve, and then mince all the dates. Then, run your knife through them until they are almost like a paste.
• Put them in your hand blender, blender, or smoothie maker.
• Add in the about half the milk and mix until combined. Don't worry, the dates won't stick to the bottom!
• Add in a few (3) of the ice cubes, and blend until smooth.
• Add the rest of the ice cubes in small increments, along with some of the milk.

Steps:

• Combine ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Fill popsicle molds and freeze.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Toast walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing once, until slightly darkened in color and fragrant, 8-10 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, place dates in a small bowl and add 1/2 cup hot water to cover; soak 10 minutes to soften.
• Blend walnuts, dates with their soaking liquid, cinnamon, and salt in a blender until a coarse paste forms. Add ice cream and 3/4 cup cracked ice and blend until smooth. Divide shake between 2 glasses.

Steps:

• Cut the banana into 1-inch-thick slices and place them in a blender. Add the dates, yogurt, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, ice cubes, and 3/4 cup water and blend until smooth. Add an additional 1/4 cup water if the shake is too thick. Pour into glasses, top with rows of coconut flakes, almonds, walnuts, pistachios, and sesame seeds, and serve.

Steps:

• For each date shake, place 1/4 cup coarsely chopped pitted dates in a blender. Add 1 cup cold milk and 1 cup(about 2 large scoops) French vanilla ice cream.
