Description
5 Ingredient Dates Snickers taste just like a Snickers bar but with a healthier, more wholesome twist. Combining the goodness of dates, the creaminess of natural peanut butter, and a chocolate coating.
Ingredients
- 12 Medjool Dates
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup roasted peanuts (crushed)
- flaky salt
Instructions
- Start by pitting the Medjool dates. Slice each date lengthwise to create a pocket for our peanut butter.
- Generously stuff each date with your favorite natural peanut butter.
- Chop the peanuts into small bits and sprinkle a small amount into the dates.
- In a makeshift double boiler (or the microwave if you're feeling lazy), melt your chocolate chips and coconut oil until smooth and glossy.
- Close the date with a toothpick. This also forms a little handle to dip the dates into the melted chocolate.
- It's time to dip each peanut butter-stuffed date into the melted chocolate, ensuring they're fully coated. Place them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, giving them enough space to mingle.
- Sprinkle crushed peanuts over the chocolate-covered dates.
- Finish off with a pinch of flaky salt because sweet and salty are a match made in snacking heaven.
- Pop the baking sheet into the fridge and let your Date Snickers chill for at least 15 minutes. Patience is a virtue – or so they say.
Taste Test: Once your Date Snickers bars have reached the perfect level of chill, it's time for the ultimate taste test. Sink your teeth into one of these bad boys.

Notes
Double Dipping for Extra Chocolatey Goodness: For a thicker chocolate layer, dip the frozen dates in chocolate, let them set for a few minutes, and repeat the process.
