Ingredients
- Medjool pitted dates: 10 pieces
- Dark chocolate chips: 1 cup
- Creamy peanut butter: 1 tablespoon
- Sea salt: 1 pinch (optional)
Instructions
- Soften the Medjool dates in warm water for about 5 minutes if they are very firm.
- Combine softened dates, dark chocolate chips, creamy peanut butter, and sea salt in a food processor.
- Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined, scraping down the sides as necessary.
- Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes until cookies are firm.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother mixture. Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
