Ingredients 

Instructions 

  • Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Cut a second rectangle of parchment paper, a few inches longer than the bottom of the loaf pan. You’ll need the second piece to smash the dates.
  • Cut a second rectangle of parchment paper, a few inches longer than the bottom of the loaf pan. You’ll need the second piece to smash the dates.
  • Carefully slice a pocket into each date to remove the pit as shown in the video.
  • Arrange your sliced dates in a single layer in your loaf pan, then top with the second sheet of prepared parchment paper and using the bottom of a cup, start pressing down on the dates, smashing them to get an even layer.
  • Drizzle or spread your nut butter evenly on the dates.
  • Sprinkle evenly with the chopped peanuts.
  • Melt your chocolate together with the coconut oil in the microwave on High, in quick 30 seconds increments, stirring after each increment. (Alternatively, you can use a double boiler over the stove.)
  • Once the chocolate is melted, drizzle over the dates and nuts and spread evenly with a spatula.
  • Freeze for at least 1 hour.
  • Remove from the pan and slice into mini bars.
  • Keep any leftovers wrapped tightly in the freezer for up to 2 months, or in the fridge for 2 weeks.
