Ingredients
 

  • 8 large medjool dates
  • 60 g pistachio butter (¼ cup)
  • 30 g pistachios (¼ cup)
  • 75 g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids) (2.5oz)

Instructions
 

  • Slice the dates lengthways and remove the stones. Arrange them closely together (sticky side up) in a loaf tin. Press them down a little so that they create an even layer. Don’t worry too much if there are gaps - the other ingredients will fill any gaps!
  • Pour the pistachio butter evenly over the dates. Use a spatula to spread it out so it covers all the dates.
  • Roughly chop the pistachios. Sprinkle about half of them over the pistachio butter.
  • Melt the dark chocolate in a bowl over a pan of hot water (or in short bursts in the microwave). Pour over the pistachio layer and spread evenly. Top with the remaining chopped pistachios.
  • Freeze for at least 1 hour, or until fully set.
  • Remove from the tin and slice or break into pieces before serving.

Notes

  • This bark can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months.
  • If you don’t have pistachios or pistachio butter, swap for other nuts or nut butters.
