24 treats

  2. 24hazelnuts
  3. 24 teaspoonspeanut butter
  4. 260 gdark chocolate
  5. Toppings (optional):

Cooking Instructions

30 min + 15 min set
  1. 1

    Slice the dates open lengthwise, careful not to slice all the way through. Remove the pit.

  2. 2

    Add an hazelnut in each date.

  3. 3

    Mix the peanut butter (or any preferred nut butter) in a small bowl until smooth.

  4. 4

    Add a teaspoon of peanut butter in each date. Pop into the freezer to firm up.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, over a double boiler melt the chocolate until smooth. I add a tablespoon of milk / coconut butter to help smooth it quicker.

  6. 6

    Dip the dates into the chocolate one at a time. Use a fork to scoop them out of the chocolate and place on a drying rack.

  7. 7

    Sprinkle with toppings of your choice or drizzle with additional melted chocolate.

  8. 8

    For the last dates I added chopped hazelnuts in the melted chocolate before dipping the dates.

  9. 9

    Place them back in the freezer for 15 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.

  10. 10

    Store in an airtight container in either the refrigerator or freezer and enjoy!
