In the Bible, when referring to the ‘Land of Milk and Honey’ it is most likely that the reference to honey is that of dates. Date honey – called ‘sillan’ in Hebrew – is wonderful drizzled over yogurt. In this recipe, we have used dates combined with biscuit spread to create a caramel-like swirl in vanilla ice cream. The results are delicious and bring to mind a ‘Land of Milk and Honey’. This can easily be made parev by using non-dairy milk and ice cream.

  • Place all ingredients other than ice cream in a blender or food processer and blend into a smooth consistency.
  • Transfer the softened ice cream to a freezer-safe, shallow container, and, using a spoon, place dollops of the date mixture over the ice cream base in the container.
  • Using a skewer or sharp knife, gently swirl the two mixtures together.
  • Cover and place in the freezer to set for at least 4-5 hours or overnight.
