Servings: 12 serves
Calories: 184kcal
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup dry roasted unsalted peanuts
- 2 ½ cups pitted dates
- ¼ cup chopped cacao pieces or chocolate chips
- pinch sea salt
Instructions
- Pop the peanuts into a food processor and pulse until finely chopped but not a paste
- Add in dates, chocolate and salt and pulse until one large mass forms
- Line a 9x9 dish with plastic wrap and press mixture into the dish. Use a wet silicone spatula to even out the surface (if you don't have one you can just use fingers but it may get sticky)
- Pop into the freezer for 30 mins
- After 30 mins remove from the freezer and use the plastic wrap to remove from the dish. Cut into 12 squares and store in a glass airtight container in the fridge
Notes
These will last in the fridge for about 2 weeks (although they only ever last a couple of days in this house). Make a double batch and keep some in the freezer - remove and store in the fridge when you are going to need them
