10 Medjool Dates

Smooth Almond Butter 225g (Pip & Nut)

1 tsp per date Almond Butter

20g Freeze-Dried Strawberries (crushed)

70% Fairtrade Dark Chocolate Impulse Bar 35g (Divine Chocolate)

Method

1. Remove the stones from the dates. It is up to you how many dates you prepare. We recommend 2-3 dates per person. They can be quite sticky, so keep a bowl of warm water nearby to wash your hands!
2. Carefully spoon about 1 tsp almond butter into each date.
3. Dollop the melted dark chocolate on the bottom half of the date, smoothing round to ensure the bottom half of the date is coated.
4. Sprinkle crushed freeze-dried fruit over the chocolate and leave to set.
