Ingredients
Scale
- 7 Medjool dates, half scored, pitted, and left whole
- 7 teaspoons of your favorite almond butter – you can DIY at home or you can use store-bought
- 7 pecans
- 100g melted chocolate
- 7 TBSP crushed roasted hazelnuts or raw crushed almonds
Instructions
- Core and pit the dates.
- Fill them with the nut butter and stick a pecan on top.
- Refrigerate them for 5-10 minutes.
- Then half dip them in almond covered dark chocolate and then in crushed hazelnuts.
- Refrigerate them for another 5 minutes so the chocolate firms up, or refrigerate them until ready to serve.
Notes
- Feel free to experiment with different nut butters! Cashew butter, peanut butter, or even sunflower seed butter can provide unique flavors and textures.
- Use your favorite chocolate—dark, milk, or even white chocolate can work well. For a healthier option, consider using sugar-free chocolate.
- Get creative with the toppings! Try rolling the dates in crushed pistachios, coconut flakes, or even a sprinkle of sea salt for an extra flavor boost.
