Description
Delightful Date Snickers combine the natural sweetness of Medjool dates, peanut butter, and dark chocolate for a guilt-free treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12–15 Medjool dates, pitted
- Peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)
- 1 cup dark chocolate (70% or higher)
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- Slice open the Medjool dates lengthwise and remove the pits.
- Fill each date with a small spoonful of peanut butter, being careful not to overstuff.
- Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave in 30-second increments or using a double boiler until smooth.

Notes
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. For longer storage, freeze individually wrapped dates for up to three months.
