- chocolate shavings for garnish
Directions
Blend dates and heavy cream in blender until dates are well blended. Add 3 cups ice cream and blend until well combined. Pour into a nice glass and top with chocolate shavings for garnish.This cool drink or dessert takes the natural nutty sweetness of the dates with the creaminess of the ice cream and makes for a taste awakening dessert. Made to serve, all you need is a blender and only takes a few minutes to make, everyone should give it a try.
yes, dates can be super sweet sometimes but they do hit the sugar craving spot :)

Wow, you are honest! After you drank it, you were like "It's so sweet" rather than the traditional, loud "MMMMMMmmmmm" I was expecting a cheezy groan of taste bud pleasure LOL! And thank you. I have a few dates left lying around and I will defo try this!
I went to bahrain for my holiday and I picked some ripened dates and they were delish! BUT EVERYONE WATCH OUT FOR THE HIGH SUGAR!

I need to say that 1/2 the fat slow churned dryers is the worst ice cream ever. I like the date shake though

heavy cream is a type of milk but one that has a higher fat content, it tastes great and is wonderful for making desserts :)

Modern science has proved that dates are part of a healthy diet. They contain sugar, fat and proteins, as well as important vitamins. Hence the great importance attached to them by the Prophet(sallallahu alaiyhi wassallam).
Dates are also rich in natural fibres. Modern medicine has shown that they are effective in preventing abdominal cancer.
