Snickers Medjool Date Bites
The ultimate mood-boosting sweet treat
These 3-ingredient Snickers Date Bites are the perfect little sweet treat, simple, nourishing, and made with real, wholefood ingredients. They’re naturally sweet, rich, and satisfying, making them a great swap for chocolate when you want something indulgent but still nourishing.
Each bite has the perfect balance of sweetness and crunch, and because they’re made with wholefood ingredients, they’ll actually keep you fuller for longer and help curb that 3pm chocolate craving.
Why They’re Mood-Boosting
Just like all my Mood-Boosting recipes, these bites are designed to support both your body and your brain, delicious and good for you.
Medjool dates provide natural sweetness, fibre, and magnesium, giving you a gentle, steady energy lift without the crash.
Nut butter is rich in healthy fats and amino acids that support brain function, hormone balance, and satiety.
Dark chocolate is loaded with antioxidants and compounds that help increase serotonin and endorphins, your body’s natural feel-good chemicals.
Together, they create the perfect bite-sized snack to boost energy, calm cravings, and elevate your mood.
Recipe
Ingredients
8–10 Medjool dates, pitted and sliced through the centre
8 tsp nut butter of choice (I love almond, peanut, or cashew)
80 g dark chocolate, melted
Method
Slice each Medjool date open (without cutting all the way through) and remove the pit.
Fill each date with 1 tsp of your chosen nut butter.
Dip or drizzle with melted dark chocolate, ensuring each one is well-coated.
Place on a tray lined with baking paper and set in the fridge until firm.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
