🍬 Use pitted Medjool dates to provide natural sweetness and optimal texture.
🥜 Raw peanuts add a satisfying crunch, working better than crunchy peanut butter alone.
🧈 Coconut oil helps melt the chocolate smoothly and ensures it sets well when chilled.
🧂 Flaky salt balances the sweetness with a pleasant hint of saltiness.
🌰 Experiment with different nuts like cashews or walnuts, or try dark chocolate instead of regular chocolate chips.
🥥 For coconut oil allergies, avocado oil can substitute, but it might slightly affect texture.
🔨 To crush dates evenly, place parchment paper on top and press with your hand or a glass without additional tools.
