5 steps

These peanut butter stuffed dates that are coated in chocolate are reminiscent of those peanut butter eggs I grew up eating, but don’t leave me with a giant stomach afterwards! And a bonus is, dates are full of fiber & antioxidants, and by pairing them with a bit of peanut butter, helps make them a balanced treat of fiber & healthy fats! You can sub any nut butter of your choosing as well.
