These wonderfully delicious Lemon Dessert Balls are easy to make and even easier to make disappear. The flavor combination of tart lemon, walnuts and sweet dates makes this recipe a winner.
It's fun to listen to our guests try and guess what the ingredients are.
For a real flavor explosion, put a plate of these next to a bowl of chocolate fondue.
Don't forget the toothpicks!
