Author: Ana Coito, Ph.D.

Ingredients

  • 100 g 100% cacao chocolate
  • 260 g dates ( I used 13 Medjool dates)
  • 30 g raw almonds (I used 26 almonds, 2 for each date)
  • Optional: salt

Instructions

  • Cut the chocolate into smaller pieces.
  •  Add water to a small pot and boil it. Put inside the heated water a smaller stainless steel or glass bowl. Put the chocolate inside and stir.
  • While the chocolate is melting, insert 2 almond inside each date.
  • Optional: sprinkle a little salt on the dates.
  • When the chocolate is melted, using a toothpick hold each almond stuffed date and dip each of them into the melted chocolate. Make sure they are completely covered with chocolate.
  •  Place a sheet of parchment paper on a plate and then the dates on it.
  • Place the plate in the freezer for 15min or in the fridge for 30min and remove the toothpicks.
  • Serve or store in the fridge.
  • Enjoy! 😊
