If you know me, then you know I love chocolate. I am always trying to find ways to get my chocolate fix but in a much healthier way. These are creamy and yummy. They definetly satisfy my sweet tooth. They take a little time but the steps are not hard. Just don't try to be fast, enjoy the dipping process. It is worth the wait.

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.
