Date Bark

Ingredients

  • 10-12 Medjool dates pitted, halved
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter natural
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips melted
  • 1 tsp coconut oil refined, optional for thinning chocolate
  • 2 tbsp chopped nuts (almonds or pistachios)
  • pinch of flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Place the pitted Medjool dates flat on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are overlapping.

  3. Carefully drizzle a small amount of drippy peanut butter on top of each date.

  4. Sprinkle chopped peanuts over the dates with peanut butter, ensuring an even distribution.

  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. This typically takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute.

  6. Drizzle or spread the melted chocolate mixture evenly over the dates and peanut butter.

  7. Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the chocolate-covered dates to enhance flavors.

  8. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for 20 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely set.

  9. Once the chocolate has hardened, break the date bark into bite-sized pieces.

  10. Serve and enjoy your homemade date bark! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
