Date Bark Recipe

This date bark recipe is one you will definitely want to try out. Chewy, crunchy, sweet and salty all in one easy to make, no-bake treat! I made a Middle Eastern inspired version using all the flavours I grew up eating and loving. I have to say, the results were amazing!

Ingredients
 
 

  • 20 Medjool dates
  • 4 tbsp tahini I love using Lebanese tahini
  • 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
  • 40g raw pistachios
  • 80g dark chocolate
  • Rose petals I used these
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Line a baking sheet/chopping board with baking paper. Remove the date pits and press them onto the baking sheet.
  • Place another baking sheet on top and press down using a rolling pin or a jar/glass to flatten the dates and make sure there are no gapes in between them.
  • Spread the tahini on top, then dust the cardamom on top and sprinkle the pistachios.
  • Pour the melted chocolate on top and spread over using a spatula to make sure it coats everything.
  • Sprinkle some rose petals and an optional sprinkle of chopped pistachios on top and a pinch of salt. Freeze for 30 minutes, then break up or chop into squares or uneven pieces.
  • Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for 1-2 weeks or the freezer for up to 3 months.
