Heart Chocolate Date Caramels
Hello again with another yummy recipe that secretly contains dates! We gotta get those dates in towards the end of pregnancy to help us have a quicker labor, but it can be hard to eat them whole (yuck). That’s why I’ve created a series of recipes that hides them into a yummy treat. You could just cut these caramels into squares, but I like how cute the hearts are for Valentine’s Day. Let me know if you like them. Enjoy!
