Prep the dates: If they aren’t already pitted, slice each date lengthwise and remove the pit. Don’t cut all the way through—keep a “hinge.”
Fill with peanut butter: Use about 1 teaspoon per date.
You want a generous but not overflowing dollop.
Add crunch: Press a few chopped peanuts into the peanut butter. This gives that signature Snickers texture.
Chill for easy dipping: Place the stuffed dates on a lined tray and freeze for 10–15 minutes so they firm up.
Melt the chocolate: Microwave chocolate chips with coconut oil in 20–30 second bursts, stirring between, until silky. Or melt over a double boiler.
Dip or drizzle: Using a fork, dip each chilled date to coat, or drizzle chocolate over the top for a lighter finish.
Tap off excess.
Finish with salt: Sprinkle flaky sea salt while the chocolate is still wet.
Set and serve: Let the chocolate harden at room temp or pop the tray in the fridge for 10–15 minutes. Enjoy chilled or slightly softened.
