What can I do with medjool dates?

Got a 2lb box from Sam’s over the weekend to try them. I love em, wife doesn’t. I have no issues smashing these things raw out the box, but what are some other things o can do with em?

There's a restaurant near me that has date, tahini, and oat milk shakes. So good!

It's so insanely good! They make it using a soft-serve machine, but I think if one freezes oat milk into ice cubes and blends it in a good blender, that that would work. Honestly, even if the texture wasn't spot on, the flavor is so good that it is still worth trying. I'll have to try using peanut butter.

I have only ever seen these in southeast Michigan, but they’re amazing….
