Ingredients
- 12 pieces Medjool dates
- 3 oz Dark chocolate chips (ensure nut-free)
- 2 tbsp Coconut cream
- 0.5 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp Sea salt
- 2 tbsp Desiccated coconut
Directions
Step 1
Begin by pitting the Medjool dates: make a small slit along one side of each date and carefully remove the pit, ensuring not to split the date completely apart.
Step 2
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and coconut cream. Heat the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Step 3
Stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt to the melted chocolate mixture until everything is well incorporated.
Step 4
Using a small spoon or piping bag, fill each date with about a teaspoon of the chocolate mixture. Be gentle to avoid splitting the dates open.
Step 5
Once all dates are filled, sprinkle desiccated coconut over each stuffed date for added texture and a hint of tropical flavor.
Step 6
Place the stuffed dates on a tray and chill them in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
Step 7
Serve the Nut-Free Chocolate-Stuffed Dates slightly chilled or at room temperature as a delightful and satisfying dessert or snack.
