Ingredients

16 dates, pitted
1/2 cup cashew butter
1 cup dark chocolate chopped (or dark chocolate chips)
2 tsp coconut oil
1/2 cup brown rice cereal
flaky salt

Instructions

Place dates on a large cutting board or sheet pan and use a cup or jar to firmly press the date to flatten. Transfer dates to a parchment lined sheet pan before freezing, this way nothing will stick.
Spread cashew butter on top and place in the freezer to chill for 15 minutes.
When firmed up, add the brown rice cereal evenly on the top of each date.
Microwave chocolate and coconut oil until melted, stopping every 30 seconds or so to stir it.
Drizzle the chocolate on top of the brown rice cereal on the dates and sprinkle with flaky salt.
Place back in the freezer until chocolate is set, about 15 minutes.
Eat right away or store in the fridge until ready to enjoy!
