👩🍳 How to Make Nut-Free Date Bark
Step 1: Prepare the Dates
Pit the dates if needed. Arrange them on a sheet of parchment paper (sized to fit a cookie tray) but don’t place the parchment on the tray yet.
Step 2: Flatten the Dates
Place another piece of parchment paper on top of the dates and use a rolling pin to flatten them as evenly and thinly as possible. Once flattened, transfer the parchment with dates to a cookie tray and remove the top sheet.
Step 3: Add the Sun Butter
Brush or spoon a thin, even layer of sun butter over the flattened dates.
Step 4: Melt the Chocolate
In a double boiler over medium-low heat, melt Pascha No Milk Baking Chips, stirring constantly until smooth. Stir in the coconut oil and mix well.
Step 5: Assemble & Freeze
Use a basting brush to spread the melted chocolate evenly over the sun butter layer. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt and place the tray in the freezer for at least 24 hours to set.
Step 6: Slice & Enjoy
Once frozen solid, remove from the freezer and slice into bark pieces. Keep stored in the freezer for the best texture!
🍫 Pro Tips & Variations
- Roll the dates as thin as possible for crispier bark.
- Drizzle with extra melted chocolate or add shredded coconut for decoration.
- Top with pumpkin seeds, hemp hearts, or freeze-dried fruit for extra crunch.
- Store in the freezer for a chewy, fudge-like texture or the fridge for a softer one.
