Description

Date Snickers are a no-bake, healthier twist on classic candy bars. Made with soft Medjool dates, creamy peanut butter, crunchy peanuts, and a drizzle of dark chocolate, they deliver all the Snickers vibes in a gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan-friendly package.


Ingredients

9 Medjool dates, pitted and halved

45 tbsp salted peanut butter (or other nut/seed butter)

3 tbsp chopped peanuts

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips

Flaky sea salt (optional)


Instructions

  1. Split the Medjool dates in half and remove pits. Place cut-side up on parchment paper.
  2. Fill each date half with about 1/2 tsp peanut butter.
  3. Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top of the peanut butter.
  4. Melt chocolate chips using a double boiler or microwave (30-second intervals).
  5. Drizzle melted chocolate over the stuffed dates.
  6. Top with flaky sea salt if desired.
  7. Chill in the fridge for 10 minutes until the chocolate sets.
  8. Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.

Notes

  • Use sunflower seed butter and seeds for a nut-free version.
  • If dates are too firm, soften them over steam for 5 minutes.
  • Mix in a little coconut oil if chocolate is too thick to drizzle.
  • Try rolling in crushed nuts or puffed rice for extra texture.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 1 month or freeze for longer shelf life.
