Viral Date Bark
HEALTHY DESSERT ALERT🚨 I’ve seen the viral “date bark” for months and tbh I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to try it bc dates are a staple in my kitchen!!! + it’s so simple. This can be made with four ingredients- dates, nut butter of choice, pretzels, and dark chocolate. I added a little coconut oil spray to my chocolate, and sea salt to top. I think the best part of the viral date bark is you can really add any other topping you want! Fried fruit, nuts.. graham cracker?! 👀 try it and let me know whatcha thinkkk**NOTE: I used a small baking tray but measurements will vary depending on the size of the tray
Ingredients
- 10-12 pitted dates
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup crushed pretzels
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1/4 teaspoon avocado oil (or coconut oil), to melt chocolate chips
- Optional: sea salt flakes, to top
Instructions
- Line your baking sheet with either aluminum foil or parchment paper so your date bark is easier to remove once frozen!
- Halve your dates and use your fingers to smash your date halves on your lined baking sheet till it creates a nice even layer. You should have no gaps.
- Using a spoon or spatula, spread an even layer of peanut butter on top of the dates.
- Crumble your pretzels into small pieces and layer on top of the peanut butter.
- Then melt your chocolate in a small bowl with a little bit of avocado oil. I like to microwave the chocolate for 30-45 seconds or until melted. Stir when you remove it from the microwave to help melt all the chocolate thoroughly.
- Pour your chocolate over the pretzel layer and spread with a spoon or spatula.
- Now, it's time to freeze! Place your date bark in the freezer for 1 hour to set the chocolate.
- When your date bark is frozen, sprinkle with flaky sea salt and enjoy!! xx
