Ingredients
- 8 large Medjool dates, pitted
- 1 Genesee Dark Chocolate Almond bar, cut into 8 thin slices
- 3 tbsp almond butter
- Flaky sea salt
- Optional: pinch of cayenne or espresso powder for heat
Method
- 1
Slice each date lengthwise along one side to open like a book — do not cut all the way through.
- 2
Press a small sliver of bar into the hollow of each date.
- 3
Top with about 1 teaspoon of almond butter.
- 4
Finish with a few flakes of sea salt — and cayenne or espresso powder if using.
- 5
Arrange on a plate and serve at room temperature; the bar softens slightly inside the warm date.
