Chocolate caramel dates recipe

Recipe created by Tess Eden.

INGREDIENTS

• ½ cup maple syrup
• 1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
• 1 tsp vanilla essence
• 2 tsp pink Himalayan salt
• 15 medjool dates (pitted)
• 125g Whittaker’s Oat Milk Chocolate or any milk chocolate
• ¼ cup peanuts, crushed
• ¼ salt flakes
  
  

METHOD

1. In a small-sized saucepan, add maple syrup, peanut butter, vanilla and salt. Bring to a boil.
2. Whisk well, turning to low once boiling. Remove from the heat after 2 minutes for the caramel to thicken.
3. Open the medjool dates to scoop salted caramel mixture inside. Pop in the fridge to set.
4. Melt Whittaker’s Oat Chocolate in the microwave on low in short increments to avoid burning.
5. Taking one date at a time, coat in melted chocolate and set on a baking paper. Repeat for all dates and sprinkle crushed peanuts or salt flakes.
6. Set in the fridge for a minimum of 20 minutes, and enjoy!
