Snickers Stuffed-Dates
Dates that taste exactly like a Snickers! The caramel-tasting Medjool dates are pitted and then stuffed with peanut butter and chopped peanuts for that perfect crunch. They're then coated in chocolate to create the ultimate sweet treat inspired by everyone's favorite chocolate bar.
Ingredients
- Medjool dates
- peanut butter
- roasted peanuts chopped
- chocolate dark, milk, or semi-sweet will work
EQUIPMENT
- toothpicks
- piping bag or ziplock bag optional
Instructions
- Cut each date open and remove the seed/pit. You can skip this step if you purchased pitted dates.
- Transfer the peanut butter to a piping bag or ziplock bag. You can also use a spoon for this step. Fill each date with peanut putter and sprinkle chopped peanuts on top. Seal the dates shut by pressing at the top.
- Press a toothpick into each date to help with dipping later. Alternatively you can use a fork to dip them but toothpicks make it easier.
- If your dates are very soft and don't hold shape well, pop them in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes. Otherwise, skip this step.
- Melt the chocolate of choice in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between until completely melted.
- Dip each date in the melted chocolate, let any excess drip off, and transfer to tray or plate lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle the top with chopped peanuts for an added crunch.
- Pop in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes until the chocolate is firm to touch.
- Remove the toothpicks and enjoy.
