Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups Medjool dates, pitted
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil

- Place the pitted Medjool dates in a food processor and blend until a sticky paste forms.

- Do not overheat the chocolate to prevent it from seizing.
- Store in the refrigerator for best texture and freshness.
