Ingredients

1/4 c peanut butter
1/4 c buckwheat
1 c dates
65 g dark chocolate
1/4 c peanuts, roasted & chopped
1/4 c cacao nibs

Instructions

Mix the peanut butter and buckwheat in a bowl and place in the freezer to set.
Open up the dates on one side, and put half a teaspoon of the peanut butter mixture inside each. Place back in the freezer to set.
Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pot of boiling water, and put the peanuts and cacao nibs in a shallow bowl.
Once firm remove the dates from the freezer, press the peanut butter mix further inside the date and wrap the outsides around it. Dip each one in the dark chocolate with a fork, place in the peanut cacao mix and sprinkle it on top to cover, then place on a plate. Repeat until all done, then place in the freezer for 30 minutes until rock hard. Will keep in the freezer for two months
