Frozen Date Salad image

Our family spent 15 years in Vermont, which is known for its delicious maple syrup, and that's where I found this recipe. Maine also has beautiful maple trees, so we continue to enjoy this salad made with locally produced syrup. Combined with cream cheese, dates and walnuts, the salad complements many meals.

I'm not a big fan of dates, but I really enjoyed this salad. The dates were not too sweet and they paired well with the other ingredients.

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The dates are sweet and chewy, the nuts are crunchy and salty, and the yogurt is creamy and tangy.

This is a great recipe for using up leftover dates. I always have a few dates left over from other recipes and this is a great way to use them up.
