Salted Caramel Peanut Butter Truffles


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup pitted dates, mashed
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, melted
  • 3 tbs. peanut butter of choice

Instructions

  1. Combine mashed dates with a pinch or two of sea salt. Combine and set aside.*
  2. Spoon a small amount of dark chocolate into each section of a silicone ice tray or mold. Using the back of a teaspoon, spread the chocolate to thinly coat the bottom layer of each section. This layer should still be thick enough that you can’t see any of the tray through the chocolate.
  3. Place in freezer to set bottom layer, about 5 minutes.
  4. Fill each mold about 2/3 of the way up with mashed dates.
  5. Fill the rest of each mold evenly to the top with peanut butter.
  6. Thinly spread the rest of the chocolate on top of each candy (i.e. don’t cover the whole surface of the tray/mold with chocolate).
  7. Return to freezer until set, about 1 hour.

Notes

  • *If necessary to help with mashing, microwave the dates first for about 20-30 seconds.
