This viral date bark is made with only a few ingredients! It tastes like a Snickers bar. This fun snack treat features pitted dates, creamy peanut butter, granola, melted chocolate, and sea salt. It is great for an afternoon treat or healthier dessert!
Ingredients
- 20 pitted dates
- ¼ cup creamy all natural peanut butter
- ¼ cup granola
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- sea salt, optional
Instructions
- First, line a pan with parchment paper.
- Remove the pits from the dates. Split the dates open (but not fully in half) and place them touching together on the parchment paper. Press down with your hands slightly.
- Spread the creamy peanut butter on top.
- Sprinkle the granola on top.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Stir until completely smooth and creamy. Spread the melted chocolate on top.
- Sprinkle with sea salt if desired. Place in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
- Finally, remove from the freezer. Cut into pieces and enjoy! Store in the fridge.
Notes
- Make sure the dates are all touching. This creates the base layer.
- Feel free to use creamy almond butter or cashew butter if desired.
- Carefully melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together. Do not burn.
- Allow this bark to fully harden before enjoying.
- Store in the fridge or freezer for up to 1 month.
