Peanut Butter Pecan Date Bombs

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Queen of Dunes dates
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup pecans (or your choice of nuts)
  • 1 cup unsweetened chocolate
  • 1/4 cup crushed peanuts

Instructions:

  • Prepare the Dates:
    • Carefully slit each Queen of Dunes date along one side to create a pocket.
    • Remove the pit from each date.
  • Fill with Peanut Butter and Pecans:
  • Begin by placing a small amount of peanut butter into each date pocket.
  • Add a pecan on top of the peanut butter, pressing it gently to secure.
  • Melt the Chocolate:
    • In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, melt the unsweetened chocolate until smooth.
  • Dip the Dates:
    • Holding each stuffed date by the sides, dip it into the melted chocolate, coating it completely.
    • Place the dipped dates on a parchment-lined tray.
  • Sprinkle Crushed Peanuts:
    • While the chocolate is still soft, sprinkle crushed peanuts on top of each dipped date for added texture.
  • Chill:
    • Place the tray in the refrigerator to allow the chocolate to harden and the filling to set. This should take about 30-60 minutes.
  • Serve:
    • Once the chocolate is firm, remove the dates from the refrigerator.
    • Arrange them on a serving platter and enjoy!
