Time 1h

Yield 24 dates

Number Of Ingredients 7

22 to 24 pitted Medjool dates, about 12 ounces
1/3 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/4 cup roasted salted peanuts, roughly chopped
8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 teaspoon flaky sea salt
8 soft caramel candies, about 1.5 ounces

Steps:

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. If the dates do not already have slits in them, cut a slit lengthwise along each date, making sure not to cut all the way through (it should look like a little canoe).
  • Stir together the peanut butter and peanuts in a medium bowl until combined. Stuff about 1 teaspoon into each date and set aside.
  • Combine the chocolate and coconut oil in a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted, stirring once halfway through, about 1 minute 30 seconds.
  • Dip 1 date into the chocolate and turn it a few times with a fork until completely coated. Use the fork to remove the date to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dates and chocolate, working with 1 date at a time. Sprinkle the tops of the dates with the flaky sea salt. Refrigerate until the chocolate has hardened, about 30 minutes.
  • Microwave the caramels in a small microwave-safe bowl in 30 second increments, stirring in between each, until the caramel can be drizzled, about 1 minute. Drizzle the caramel over the dates and refrigerate until set, about 10 minutes. Serve right away or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality chocolate chips. The better the chocolate, the better the haystacks will taste. Look for chips that are made with real cocoa butter and have a high percentage of cocoa solids.
  • Use creamy peanut butter. Creamy peanut butter will give the haystacks a smooth and creamy texture. If you only have chunky peanut butter, you can use it, but be sure to chop the peanuts finely.
  • Don't overcook the haystacks. The haystacks should be cooked just until the chocolate chips are melted and the peanut butter is softened. If you overcook them, they will become hard and dry.
  • Let the haystacks cool completely before storing them. This will help them to set and hold their shape.
  • Store the haystacks in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Chocolaty peanut butter haystacks are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these delicious haystacks that will be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these chocolaty peanut butter haystacks a try. You won't be disappointed!
