Servings: 12 date snickers
Calories: 73kcal
Cost: $5
Ingredients
- 12 dried deglet noor dates
- 2-4 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Optional
- sea salt for sprinkling
Instructions
- Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, heating them in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is smooth. Shorter microwave intervals are best for melting chocolate so you don't burn it.
- Slice each date in half the long way as if you were slicing a hot dog bun.
- One at a time, fill each date with about 1/2-1 tsp of peanut butter, depending on the size of the date, then place the stuffed date in the melted chocolate. Use a fork to help you turn and coat the whole date. Remove the date from the chocolate and set on a piece of parchment paper.
- If desired, you can sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of each date snicker for a nice touch.
- Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to harden

Notes
Store in an airtight container. I prefer to refrigerate these for the best taste and texture, but you don't have to. These date snickers are good for up to 5 days.
