Ingredients

• Pitted medjool dates (about 15-20 dates)

• 1/4 cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)

• 100g dark chocolate (around 70% cocoa)

Directions

• Lay the pitted dates on a baking tray, ensuring they are close together. Use a glass to gently press them down, flattening them out so they stick together in a solid layer.
• Next, spread a layer of peanut butter over the dates.
• Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method), or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until fully melted.
• Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter, spreading it evenly across the top.
• Place the tray in the fridge for 1-2 hours until the chocolate is set and hardened.
• Once the chocolate is fully set, break the bark into pieces.
