Date Snickers Chocolate (Printable Version)
# What You'll Need:
→ Main Stuff
01 -
Fresh, squishy Medjool dates, large-sized
02 -
Creamy nut butter of your choice (peanut, almond, etc.)
03 -
Unsalted roasted nuts, like peanuts or others you prefer
04 -
Good-quality dark chocolate, chips or a bar
05 -
A bit of sea salt flakes to sprinkle on top
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Find the seam on each date and carefully slice down the middle to make a pocket. Keep one end hooked together.
02 -
Grab a plate that can sit in the freezer and line it with parchment paper. Open all the dates to prep for filling.
03 -
Scoop your nut butter into each date until it's almost full. Press in a few nuts, then lightly squeeze them shut. Chill in the freezer to firm them up.
04 -
While you wait, heat up the chocolate so it's nice and smooth. Let it cool just enough to stick well.
05 -
Take out the frozen dates. Dunk each one into the melted chocolate, using two spoons to cover them fully.
06 -
Right after dipping, sprinkle sea salt on the wet chocolate. Put them back in the freezer until the chocolate turns solid.
# Additional Tips:

Best enjoyed straight from the freezer for that perfect texture!
