Dates, peanut butter and chocolate. These little bites are the equivalent of healthy snicker bars! No kidding. They are the easiest and most delicious snack to have on the fridge.Make sure to use a softer variety of dates such as medjool or the smaller khalas dates.I like chunky peanut butter, you can use smooth, as long as it’s a top quality no oil added one. As for the chocolate, you can use all dark or a mix of both dark and milk, just make sure it’s a good quality one.
