Introducing the Viral Chocolate Date Bark, an easy-to-make and delicious dessert that perfectly fits into a weight loss meal plan. Created by a nutrition coach, this metabolism-boosting treat combines the natural sweetness of dates with the rich flavor of chocolate for a guilt-free indulgence.
Makes: 20 servings
Ingredients:
- 8 oz pitted dates
- 1/4 cup hot water
- 1.25 cups rolled oats
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips (can use dairy-free if needed)
Instructions
- In a food processor or strong blender, add the dates and hot water. Roughly blend until the water is thoroughly mixed with the blended dates.
- Add the oats and chia seeds to the dates. Fully blend until the mixture comes together into a cohesive paste.
- Line a square 8×8 pan with parchment paper. Scoop the mixture into it and press down using a spatula until evenly spread. Wet the spatula with water if it is sticking too much.
- Next, scoop the cup of peanut butter over the bottom layer and evenly spread.
- Melt the chocolate and pour over the peanut butter, spread evenly.
- Put the pan in the freezer for 1-3 hours or until fully frozen. Then cut into small pieces. Enjoy!
