These lovely little acorns are an impressive treat to serve at Thanksgiving.  They’re made with dates, almonds, chocolate, and chopped nuts.  They’re also very pretty and quite delicious.

You will need:

• Pitted dates
• Whole almonds
• Dipping chocolate
• Chopped almonds or other nuts

To make:

1. Insert a whole almond into each pitted date.
2. Dip each acorn in the the chocolate so that about two thirds of each are coated.
3. Allow chocolate to set (or if you’re impatient like I am, stick them in the freezer for a bit.).
4. Dip remaining third of the date into chocolate and sprinkle chopped nuts over the soft chocolate so they adhere.
5. Let chocolate set.
6. Enjoy!
