Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 12 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 12 Medjool dates, pitted
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla; full-fat or 2% works best)
  • 2–3 tablespoons nut butter (peanut, almond, or cashew)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1 cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil (for smoother melting, optional)
  • Optional toppings: flaky sea salt, crushed nuts, shredded coconut, cacao nibs

Instructions
 

  • Prep the dates: Split each date lengthwise and remove the pit if not already pitted. Gently open them like a book without tearing all the way through.
  • Mix the filling: In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, nut butter, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.
  • Stuff the dates: Spoon about 1–2 teaspoons of the yogurt mixture into each date. Press the sides together to close slightly.
  • Pre-freeze: Place stuffed dates on a parchment-lined tray. Freeze for 20–30 minutes to firm up. This helps them hold shape for dipping.
  • Melt the chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate chips with coconut oil in 20–30 second bursts, stirring between each, until smooth. Or melt gently on the stovetop using a double boiler.
  • Dip and top: Using a fork, dip each chilled date into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off. Place back on the parchment. Sprinkle with flaky salt or toppings while the chocolate is still wet.
  • Final freeze: Freeze for 20–30 minutes, until the chocolate sets. Enjoy straight from the freezer or let soften for 2–3 minutes.
