Begin by inserting 1or 2 almonds in every date. Secure with a toothpick and set aside on a sheet of parchment paper.
Using the stovetop, melt dark chocolate and inside a small saucepan over medium low heat. (alternatively you can use a double boiler or microwave in 30 second intervals until chocolate is smooth). Remove chocolate from the stove.

Dip each of the date/almonds into chocolate mixture until completely covered. You can also use a fork. Let the residual chocolate drip back into the pot.
Roll them with any toppings you like. I used desiccated coconut.
Place on parchment paper to dry.

Place inside the freezer for 15 minutes (or fridge for 25), and remove toothpicks (if using).
Store inside an air tight container in the fridge.

#Tips:

You can use any chocolate you like, I used dark chocolate bars.
Feel free to use chopped nuts, sesame seeds, sea salt, pistachio, or whatever toppings you love!

Nut butter inside the date is also a delicious idea!
Store at room temperature for up to one week in an air tight container (they won’t last long!)
