Ingredients
Method
- Split each date open without cutting through the back. Fill with a little tahini, divide the sesame seeds among the fillings and press the dates closed.
- Melt chocolate with coconut oil in short microwave bursts, stirring between them. Dip half of each date into chocolate.
- Set on parchment and refrigerate for 30 minutes until the coating firms. Keep chilled until serving.
A little note
If tahini is separated, stir it thoroughly before measuring.
Cooking tips
- Stir tahini before filling the dates so separated oil does not leak from the centers.
- Keep water away from melting chocolate, and let excess chocolate drip off before chilling the dates.
