Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 8 large large medjool dates Pitted
  • 60 g pistachio butter Approximately ¼ cup
  • 30 g pistachios Chopped, approximately ¼ cup
  • 75 g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids) Approximately 2.5 oz

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Slice the dates lengthways and remove the stones.
  2. Arrange the dates closely together (sticky side up) in a loaf tin and press them down slightly to create an even layer.
  3. Pour the pistachio butter evenly over the dates and use a spatula to spread it out to cover all the dates.
  4. Roughly chop the pistachios and sprinkle about half over the pistachio butter.
Chocolate Layer
  1. Melt the dark chocolate in a bowl over a pan of hot water or microwave in short bursts.
  2. Once melted, pour the chocolate over the pistachio layer and spread it evenly, then top with the remaining chopped pistachios.
Setting
  1. Freeze for at least one hour, or until fully set.
  2. Remove from the tin and slice or break into pieces before serving.

Notes

For best flavor, use quality dark chocolate. Customize the bark with other nuts or dried fruits if desired. Drizzle additional melted chocolate on top before freezing for added flair.
