You can customize it with your favorite nuts, seeds, and toppings.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Date Bark<\/h2>\n<p>You only need a few simple ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>15\u201320 pitted dates<\/li>\n<li>3 tablespoons peanut butter or almond butter<\/li>\n<li>\u00bd cup melted dark chocolate<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons chopped almonds or peanuts<\/li>\n<li>A small pinch of sea salt (optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Make Date Bark<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Step 1: Prepare the dates.<\/strong> Remove the pits and arrange the dates close together on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Press them gently to form a flat layer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Add the nut butter.<\/strong> Spread peanut butter evenly over the dates.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3: Add the toppings.<\/strong> Sprinkle chopped nuts over the peanut butter for extra crunch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4: Cover with chocolate.<\/strong> Pour the melted chocolate over the top and spread it evenly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 5: Chill and serve.<\/strong> Refrigerate for 1\u20132 hours until firm.
