- If your dates are not sticky and moist you can soak them quickly in hot water to make them easier to process and turn into dough. Try soaking the dates in hot water for a few minutes then drain thoroughly to prevent the crust from getting soggy.
- These cheesecake bites are amazing on their own but feel free to top them with whip cream, chocolate drizzle, or caramel sauce.
