(0 from 0 votes)I am allergic to peanuts. Any substitutions recommended? Thanks
I used almond butter. The results are delicious. Give it a try.
Thank You
This seems like a lazy recipe. I have seen versions where the peanut butter is piped inside the date and it’s then dipped in melted chocolate.
Sounds yummy! Can carob be used to substitute for the chocolate? Would the quantity be different? I love chocolate, but I have friends who can't have it because it has caffeine and also I would make it for my dogs and chocolate Can be deadly to them!
