Dark Chocolate Bark with Medjool Dates is an easy no-bake dessert with only four ingredients: Medjool dates, peanut butter, almonds, and dark chocolate. You can serve it around the holidays, gift to friends, or have it as a treat anytime.
Medjool dates have a rich, almost caramel-like taste and a soft, chewy texture. Native to Morocco, Medjool dates are just one of hundreds of varieties of dates, but they’re the only one known as “the fruit of kings.” Medjool dates are actually harvested from the date palm, cleaned, sorted and packaged right away. There’s no processing and that’s why you’ll find them in the produce section at the grocery store.
How to make Dark Chocolate Bark with Medjool Dates:
1. First, line a pan (I used a 14in X10in pan) with parchment paper. Next, place a single layer of the Medjool dates on a parchment paper. Use your hands to press them down onto the baking sheet as close together as possible.
2. Drizzle with peanut butter and sprinkle almonds on top. Then, drizzle the melted chocolate on top and use a spatula to spread out evenly.
3. Finally, freeze for about 30 minutes. When the chocolate is set, break into pieces or cut with a sharp knife. Keep in the fridge for best results.
