When the new year rolls around, many of us are looking for ways to satisfy our sweet tooth while staying on track with our health goals. That’s why we’re loving these easy-to-make guilt-free Date Caramels. Soft, delicious, gluten-free and naturally sweet, they’re a perfect healthy treat to enjoy any time of year. Made with wholesome Medjool dates, these caramels come together in minutes with the help of a food processor (We highly recommend the Cuisinart food processor – we’ve been using ours for many years). Dip the caramels in chocolate for an elevated dessert that’s rich and satisfying without being overly indulgent. We’re sharing this recipe just in time for Valentine’s Day, but truth be told, these healthy gluten-free Date Caramels are a hit year-round. They’re ideal for gifting to friends (pop in cellophane bags and wrap with ribbon and a gift tag) or savoring with your favorite cup of tea. If you’re feeling extra fancy, add a pecan half to the top of each date caramel before chilling the dough. This transforms them into what’s often called a “Gopher”—a nutty, chewy delight you’ll crave again and again. Whether you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day with loved ones or just treating yourself to a guilt-free sweet, these Date Caramels are a guilt-free indulgence that is sure to satisfy. Best of all, they’re quick to whip up and made with ingredients you can feel good about.
