"How good are stuffed dates?! Sweet & salty, soft & chewy, crisp & crunchy = absolutely delish but . . . . When you add a layer of cool, crisp decadent & rich espresso infused dark chocolate you take them to a whole new level!" - Em Swanston.
INGREDIENTS
- 16 large organic dates, pit removed
- 1/2 cup of nut butter - You choose almond, cashew or macadamia using 2die4 Live Foods activated nuts
- 1 cup (or 16 squares) of dark chocolate
- 1 teaspoon of instant coffee
- 16 2die4 Live Foods Activated Almonds
METHOD
- Line a baking tray with non-stick paper - set aside.
- Pit dates, stuff with nut butter & gently pinch to re-seal - they may not fully close because of all the dreamy nut butter - that's totally okay!
- Place them on your lined baking sheet & pop in the freezer for 5 min. - this helps the filling "set" & makes it a little easier (aka slightly less messy) to coat.
- Melt choc & stir in coffee.
- Use 2 forks to dip & coat your stuffed dates, place back on the baking tray.
- Top with a 2die4 Live Foods Activated Almond & drizzle with any remaining chocolate.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of flakey sea salt.
