Oh my good golly.
These are divine.
I've been making these bad boys since 2018 and they have become a favorite of not only mine but my Momma Bears too.
They are chewy, caramely, crunchy, chocolatey and salty in one bite.
The perfect snack.
They taste like a snickers without the list of ingredients that you can't pronounce and have no idea what they are.
& they are incredibly easy to make.
Recently, the internet went wild with variations of them.
Here is mine.
INGREDIENTS
25 medjool dates, pitted
1/2 cup + peanut butter
1/2 cup + peanuts
2 chocolove 55% chocolate bars (~ 6 ounces)
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Maldon sea salt
DIRECTIONS
Slice each date lengthwise, making sure not to cut all the way through and remove the pit.
Fill each date with about 1/2-1 teaspoon of peanut butter depending on the size. Press about 4 peanuts into the peanut butter and place in the freezer for about 30 minutes to stiffen up.
Just before you take the dates out of the freezer, melt the chocolate + coconut oil (choose your method, I usually just use the microwave for this recipe). Toss the date + peanut butter combo through the chocolate using a spoon to make sure it all gets coated. Remove using a fork so the excess can drip away. Sprinkle with Maldon salt before the chocolate sets.
Freeze again for 30 minutes to harden the chocolate.
Enjoy!! These store well in a glass container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. (or 2 months in the freezer.)
