Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice one side of each date and open them up.
Take 1/2tbsp-1tbsp nut butter and place in each date. It shouldn’t spill over.
Place in freezer for 1 hour.

Remove dates from freezer.
Drizzle chocolate over each date.
Return to freezer for 10 minutes, or until chocolate hardens.
Store in fridge and enjoy!

Notes

The prep time in this recipe is higher than normal because of the time we want to allow to freeze the nut butter filled dates. Otherwise, this recipe is super simple and doesn't require any baking! You can use any nut butter, but it just won't have that maple caramel flavor.
