Date Snickers Bites
Soft Medjool dates
Peanut butter or other nut butter
Peanuts or other nuts or seeds
Chocolate chips
Flaky sea salt, optional
Split the dates in half. Remove pits if they are not already pitted. Lay on a plate or baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
Spread a generous amount of peanut butter or other butter into each date half.
Push peanuts or other nuts into the peanut butter.
Melt chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted. Spoon melted chocolate over the top of each date half. Quickly sprinkle with flaky sea salt over the top, if desired.
Place these in the refrigerator or freezer for several minutes until the chocolate hardens.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep the chocolate topping firm. These will store for a long time, so make a large batch!
