Ingredients
- 12 pitted medjool dates
- 1 cup PB2 powdered peanut butter
- ¼ cup dairy free milk
- 3-4 tablespoons chopped pecans , can sub with another nut or omit
- 3-4 tablespoons maple syrup , depends on how runny you prefer it
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup chocolate chips
- Drizzle of neutral oil like coconut oil , optional to thin out chocolate and make it easier to work with (or can use a tiny bit of milk too if oil free)
- Sea salt to top , optional
Instructions
- Open the dates so you have the center exposed.
- Mix ¾ cup of the powdered peanut butter and milk until smooth. Use a whisk to make it easy. Mix in pecans and set aside.
- Mix the remaining ¼ cup of the powdered peanut butter, maple syrup and vanilla until smooth and set aside.
- Put about one teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture in the center of each date, it will depend on the size of your dates. Close the dates and place on a plate.
- Melt the chocolate chips with oil (if using). Drizzle over the top of the dates.
- Drizzle with the caramel mixture. I like a thicker caramel so using a plastic baggie and cutting off the corner to drizzle it over works great.
- Place in the fridge for 5-10 minutes to firm up a bit if preferred and enjoy!
Notes
- If you don’t want to use powdered peanut butter, you can also use 4 tablespoons regular peanut butter and take out the milk for the filling.
- You may have a little extra of the fillings and toppings, if so then make more dates or drizzle over ice cream!
