Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Date Balls

This is a short and sweet snack or healthy dessert bite recipe! It’s 5 ingredients plus some sea salt flakes to make these. They are super delish and you don’t feel as bad eating them. Recipe below!

Ingredients:

• 5 medjool dates
• 3 tbsp. old fashioned oats
• 1/2 cup creamy salted peanut butter
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (Lily's or Enjoy Life are vegan options)
• 1/2 tbsp coconut oil
• Flaky sea salt

Instructions:

1. Use a food processor to chop the dates into small pieces. Add in the oats and peanut butter, and pulse until combined
2. Roll them into tbsp size balls, and freeze on parchment paper for a few hours
3. Melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a bowl by heating in the microwave for 30 second intervals
4. Use a tooth pick to dip the hardened date balls into the chocolate or use a spoon to coat it. The chocolate will quickly harden from the cold temperature of the date ball. Before it hardens, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top
5. Throw the chocolate covered date balls in the freezer for 30 minutes, and then enjoy! Store in the fridge afterward.
