Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1.2 ounces dark chocolate, melted (I used 72% Endangered Species dark)
  • 1/2 teaspoon orange zest (plus more for topping)
  • 4 soft deglet noor or medjool dates
  • 16 dry roasted macadamia nut halves (you can also use whole nuts)
  • Pink sea salt or flaky salt (if your nuts are salted, you may not need extra salt)

Method
 

  1. Flatten the dates on a small, parchment-lined plate.
  2. Place 4 macadamia nut halves on top of each date.
  3. Fold the orange zest into the melted chocolate, then cover the nuts with the orange chocolate mixture.
  4. Sprinkle a little zest on top of the melted chocolate, along with a light pinch of salt, if needed.
  5. Freeze for 10 minutes before enjoying.
  6. Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to one week.
