- 150 g dark chocolate roughly chopped (we recommend Lindt Smooth 70%)
- 60 g peanut butter or nut butter of choice
Suggested toppings
- 2 Tbsp chopped peanuts
- 2 Tbsp sea salt flakes
- 2 Tbsp pistachios roughly chopped
If your dates are not pitted remove pit by slicing lengthways and remove pit from all the dates.
Add 1 tsp peanut butter to the middle of each date and close the date. Repeat for the remaining dates and place in the freezer.
Add chocolate to the mixer bowl and mill 10 sec/Speed 8/MC on. Scrape mixer bowl down.
Melt chocolate for 3 min/50℃/speed 2. While the chocolate is melting line a small tray with baking paper and remove the dates from the freezer.
Once chocolate is melted, one by one dip the stuffed dates into the chocolate and remove to the tray using a fork or a skewer.
Immediately sprinkle with desired toppings and place in fridge to set completely. Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
Nut Free: Replace peanut butter with Roasted Seed Butter and replace nut toppings with toasted seeds and coconut.
Dairy Free: Use Dairy Free Dark Chocolate
