Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Using a double boiler melt 1 cup dark chocolate, 72% or more is ideal, over low heat. Stir frequently.
- While the chocolate melts prepare dates. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 20-22 pitted dates. Cut them lengthwise but only one side so that they fold open. Set on baking sheet.
- Scoop about a teaspoon of the nut mixture and roll it into a log. Place the log into the date, squeeze the sides of the date to close firmly. You should be able to see some of the nut mixture along the cut edge.
- Freeze prepared dates for 15-20 minutes until firm.
- Remove chocolate from heat. Dip each date into the melted chocolate.
- Sprinkle a few grains of sea salt on top. Set on parchment paper.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Will keep in air tight container in refrigerator for a week.
