Easy “Snickers” Date Crunch Bark
Ingredients
- 20 soft Medjool dates pitted
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup raw peanuts
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- A pinch of flaky salt

- Next, drizzle peanut butter over the dates and sprinkle on the crushed peanuts.
- In a small bowl, melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave, stirring in-between until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the date and peanut mixture, then chill in the fridge for an hour or freeze for 35 minutes until set.
- Once it’s set, sprinkle some flaky salt on top, break it apart, and enjoy! Store any leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to a week.
