Slice the dates lengthwise and remove the pits. Place on a parchment lined sheet
Fill each date with cashew butter, about 1/2 tsp each.
Temper the chocolate. For easy tempering, place 2/3 of the chocolate in a glass bowl. Microwave on 50% power for 60 second intervals. Stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is melted and temperature is 110F.
"Seed" the melted chocolate with the remaining chocolate chips, stirring in a little a time, making sure that the added chocolate is fully melted before adding more. Repeat until all the chocolate is used.
Once the chocolate has cooled to 90F, you can start coating the dates.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cashew butter to seal it in, then coat the entire date with chocolate.
Using a fork, lift the date from the chocolate and allow the excess chocolate to drizzle off.
Scrape any remaining chocolate from the bottom of the fork before transferring the date to your parchment lined sheet.
Sprinkle with the chopped cashews and flaky salt, if desired. Repeat with the remaining dates.
Drizzle the tops of the dates with any remaining chocolate, if desired.
Once the chocolate has hardened, enjoy!
