Step 1: Prepare the Dates

Slice each date lengthwise and remove the pit. If desired, you can stuff the dates with nuts (like almonds or walnuts) for an extra crunch.

Step 2: Melt the Chocolate

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 20-30 second increments, stirring between each round, until smooth and fully melted. Alternatively, you can use a double boiler to melt the chocolate.

Step 3: Dip the Dates

Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each date into the melted chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Let any excess chocolate drip off before placing the date onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has fully set. Once set, the chocolate-covered dates are ready to serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
