Ohhhhh my goodness, I didn’t know something so simple could be quite this delicious. These have all the cold chewy texture, all the flavor and allllllla da goodness. Oh- and if you’re wondering (like I did) “are the Medjool really worth it?” The answer, in this case, is DEFINITELY YES. The Medjool take these above and beyond.

I’m more doing this post so I remember these… but again, I didn’t really deviate from Minimalist Bakers steps. I did make my own chocolate and reduce the amount of chocolate on them, but that was totally a personal preference.

They’re sweet and rich and chewy and creamy and amazing. You definitely need to try them!

Ingredients:

12 Medjool Dates

1/2c tahini (or enough to fill the dates)

1/4 cup melted chocolate of choice (i made mine with cacao powder, honey and coconut oil, see here for the recipe)

Directions:

1. Half and pit medjool dates. Be careful not to cut the entire way through so the tannin doesn’t all spill out. Spoon about 1 tsp of tahini in each date. 

2. Freeze for about 10-15 minutes

3. Spoon about 1 tsp of chocolate over each date.

Repeat

That is literally it. I store these in the fridge because I love how the medjool dates stay nice and chewy with the cold hard chocolate on top. So so so dang yummy.
