Preparation

  1. In a small bowl soak the cashews in enough water to cover them for one hourIn a separate bowl soak the dates in the milk for one hour.
  2. After the dates and cashews are soaked at them to a blender with the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.
  3. In an airtight container freeze the mixture for 3 hours or until it reaches the ice cream texture.
