I don't know if Rolos are sold outwith the UK but they're basically chocolate coated soft caramels, cone shaped but with a flattened top. This is my vegan version!

Steps

1 hour 20 mins

1

If the dates are hard, soak them in hot water for a minute or two, then drain well, patting the moisture out with a clean tea towel
2

Put the dates, salt and nut / seed butter in a bowl then using a stick blender, puree them together to form the thick caramel paste
3

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
4

Freeze the mixture in the bowl for 20 minutes then form little balls out of it. The easiest way is to keep halving the mixture. I made 36 balls of a 'Malteser' size
5

Put them back in the freezer for 20 minutes on the lined sheet to harden up again
6

Melt the chocolate together with the oil. See my recipe for tempering chocolate if you like or just blast it in the microwave in 15 - 30 second stints until melted
7

Use a cocktail stick to pick up and coat the balls in the chocolate. Set back in the freezer for 20 minutes to set. You can use extra chocolate and double dip them if you want a thicker shell
8

Keep in a lidded container in the fridge until they're gone
