Servings: 8

- 100 g Peanut butter

- 150 g Dark chocolate Melted
- Flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Slice down one side of the dates and lay them out next to each other on a sheet of parchment paper on a baking tray.

- Spread the peanut butter over the dates then scatter over the chopped peanuts.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the top and use the back of a spoon to help spread it out.
- Sprinkle over the flaky salt and place in the freezer for 30 minutes before chopping into pieces.

Notes
Medjool dates: You can use normal dates if you prefer but Medjool ones will give you a really squishy, carmel-like layer. Remove stones or buy pitted.
Peanut butter: I prefer this kind but Date Bark is delicious with any nut butter, so use your favourite.
Storing: Dark Bark is best when kept in the freezer. You can enjoy it while it’s still frozen (like Snickers Ice Cream!) or it defrosts quickly, so leave for a few moments before eating.
