Description
A quick and easy dessert combining the wholesomeness of dates, creamy peanut butter, and indulgent chocolate.
Ingredients
- 20-24 Medjool dates
- 2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts
- 9 ounces chocolate chips or a chocolate bar
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
- Coarse sea salt (optional for topping)
Instructions
- Line a medium-sized baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Take your Medjool dates and carefully slit each one, removing the pits if needed. Arrange the dates on the lined pan in a rectangular shape.
- Pour and spread the creamy peanut butter evenly over the layer of dates.
- Sprinkle the dry roasted peanuts in an even layer over the peanut butter.
- Combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments until the chocolate is mostly melted. Keep stirring until it’s nice and smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate evenly over the peanut butter and peanuts. If desired, sprinkle some coarse sea salt on top.
- Pop the baking sheet into the freezer for 60-90 minutes or until the bark is completely set.
- Remove the bark from the freezer and peel off the parchment paper. Place it on a cutting board and slice it into bite-sized pieces.
- Serve and enjoy your delicious creation!
