Ingredients
– 1 cup organic pitted dates for creating pockets for stuffing
– 1/3 cup organic peanut butter or nut butter of choice for filling the date pockets and adding creamy texture and protein

– 100 grams dairy-free dark chocolate for dipping or drizzling over stuffed dates for a rich finish

Instructions
1-Getting started with this Date Snickers recipe is as easy as rounding up your ingredients and clearing a bit of counter space. First, slice those organic pitted dates down the middle to make pockets, which is a fun way to stuff in all the good stuff. This step sets the stage for a treat that feels homemade and special.
2-Begin by collecting 1 cup of organic pitted dates and slicing them open. Then, fill each one about 75% full with 1/3 cup of organic peanut butter, and add 1/4 cup of organic peanuts on top before pinching them closed.
3-Once stuffed, pop the dates in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to firm up. While they chill, melt 100 grams of dairy-free dark chocolate and let it cool a bit. After the first freeze, dip or drizzle the dates with the chocolate, sprinkle on some flaky salt, and freeze again for 20-30 minutes until everything sets.
