INGREDIENTS

Stuffed Dates

  • 2 cups pitted noor dates (about 24)
  • 1/8-1/4 cup nut butter
  • 1/2-1 tsp flakey sea salt
  • chocolate drizzle (see below)

Chocolate Drizzle

  • 1/3 cup 70% dark organic chocolate chips, melted

INSTRUCTIONS

Stuff the Dates

  1. Cut a small opening in each date, and use a spoon to fill with about 1 tsp. of nut butter. Gently close the date around the nut butter. Repeat until all of the dates are filled.

  2. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.

Make the Chocolate Drizzle

  1. When the dates are chilling, gently melt the chocolate in the microwave.

  2. Allow it to cool slightly. If it hardens too much, just warm it again and stir.

Top with Chocolate and Sea Salt

  1. Place the dates on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  2. Use a spoon to drizzle chocolate over each date. Sprinkle a tiny bit of salt on top before it hardens, then move on to the next date.

  3. Allow the chocolate to harden, then store in the fridge until you’re ready to enjoy them!
