Chocolate Stuffed Dates.

Step 1 of 6

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.

Step 2 of 6

Cook for 3 minutes undisturbed. Flip the breast, partially cover and cook for another 3 minutes.

Step 3 of 6

Take a teaspoon to fill the dates with almond butter. The best way to do this is to try to push as much of the almond butter into the two side “pockets” that the date has. (Don’t overfill!)

Step 4 of 6

Place the semi-dark baking chocolate of your choice into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30 seconds increments, stirring after 30 seconds to ensure it doesn’t burn or seize.

Step 5 of 6

Once the chocolate has melted, carefully take the stuffed date and dip it (cut side up) into the melted chocolate. Using two forks, cover the date with chocolate then using one of the forks, get the fork underneath the date and lift it from the chocolate.

Step 6 of 6

Before setting aside on parchment paper for 8-10 minutes, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes for some extra flavour!

Tips

Tap gently against the bowl to let the excess chocolate drip off.
