Carefully separate the leaves of the endive heads, discarding any damaged or bruised outer leaves. Wash the leaves gently under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the goat cheese, chopped walnuts, 1 tablespoon of honey, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Use a fork to mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Using a small spoon, scoop about 1 teaspoon of the goat cheese mixture and place it into the widest part of an endive leaf. Repeat this process for all the leaves until the goat cheese mixture is used up.
Arrange the stuffed endive leaves on a serving platter in a decorative pattern.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey over the stuffed leaves for a touch of sweetness.
Serve immediately and enjoy the crisp, creamy, and nutty combination!
