Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 20 Medjool dates pitted and flattened
  • ⅓ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • ½ teaspoon flaked sea salt optional

Instructions
 

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice and pit the dates, flatten them, and arrange them in a rectangle.
  • Melt the peanut butter in 20-second intervals, stirring until it becomes smooth. Then, drizzle it over the dates.
  • Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30-second intervals until smooth. Spread over the peanut butter layer.
  • Sprinkle with the flaky sea salt and any desired toppings.
  • Chill for 1 hour, until firm. Cut into pieces and serve.

Notes

Chef Jenn’s Tips

  • If your dates don’t stick together, don’t worry; the chocolate will hold everything in place once it sets.
  • For a fun twist, use almond butter, cashew butter, or even hazelnut spread instead of peanut butter.
  • Make candy cups: place individual dates in mini cupcake liners, fill with peanut butter, then cover with chocolate.
