Begin by lining a small baking sheet with parchment paper. Gently split the Medjool dates open, and place them on the sheet, allowing them to slightly overlap so they stick together, forming a flattened rectangle.
16 pitted Medjool dates
Drizzle the melted peanut butter evenly over the dates. Use a spoon to spread it across the surface. Sprinkle the chopped peanuts over the peanut butter layer.
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter, 1/4 cup peanuts
In a separate bowl, melt the dark chocolate chips along with the coconut oil in intervals of 20 seconds in the microwave, stirring in between. Drizzle the melted chocolate mixture over the peanut butter and peanuts. Use a spoon to ensure an even distribution of the chocolate.
½ cup dark chocolate chips, 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Add a sprinkling of flaky sea salt to the top of the chocolate-covered dates. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes or until the chocolate sets.
Flaky sea salt to taste
Once the chocolate has hardened, remove the baking sheet from the freezer. Carefully chop the date bark into 10 pieces.
The delicious date bark is ready to enjoy! Remember to store any leftovers in either the refrigerator or the freezer. Allow frozen bark to sit out for a few minutes to soften slightly before biting into it.
