πŸ’‘ Pro Tips

  • 🌴Use soft medjool dates β€” they bind everything together perfectly. If dry, soak in warm water for 5 minutes first.
  • 🍫Use 70%+ dark chocolate for maximum antioxidants and a richer flavour that isn’t too sweet.
  • πŸ₯œToast the nuts first in a dry pan for 2 minutes β€” it makes an enormous difference to the flavour.
  • ❄️Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or freeze for 3 months. Perfect for meal prep snacking.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this dairy-free?

Yes! Replace the butter with coconut oil. Use the same quantity and the texture will be almost identical.

Can I swap the nuts?

Absolutely! Walnuts, almonds, pecans, or hazelnuts all work beautifully. Use whatever you have on hand.

How do I melt the chocolate perfectly?

Use a double boiler or microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each burst. Don’t overheat or it will seize.

Is this suitable for kids?

Yes! It’s a great healthy snack for kids. If making for very young children, chop the nuts finely before adding.
