"I have not made this recipe. It sounds wonderful and It is from a local "Wellness Centre" that I totally trust. I thought Vegan Members may be interested in trying it. If your dates aren't soft enough to blend easily soak them in warm water for 10 minutes. You need to make these tarts ahead of time as they need to set in the fridge for 4-6 hours. Suggest serving them with whipping cream (whipping cream not included in the ingredIents)"
