These White Chocolate Mummy Dates are scary delicious! Made with only three ingredients, they are stuffed with creamy peanut butter and dipped in white chocolate. Absolutely Spooktacular!
Equipment
- Parchment Paper or Wax Paper
- Sheet Pan
Ingredients
- 22 ounces Baking White Chocolate Chips or 24 ounce block of Vanilla Almond Bark
- 1/2 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
- 20 Pitted Medjool Dates
- 40 Spooky Eyes For Decoration
- 1/2 teaspoon Canola oil *if using baking white chocolate
Instructions
- Cut a slit in pitted dates using a sharp knife.
- Using a butter knife, scoop enough peanut butter to stuff each individual date without overstuffing (about 1/2 teaspoon), then place them on a parchment-lined sheet pan.
- Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl for 15 to 30 second increments, stirring, until melted.TIP: add a small amount of vegetable or canola oil to get a smooth consticency for drizzling and dipping dates.
- Once white chocolate is melted and smooth after stirring, quickly dip each peanut butter stuffed date into melted white chocolate to cover evenly.
- Gently transfer each white chocolate covered date to parchment-lined baking sheet, then place the sheet pan in the freezer for 5-7 minutes.
- After they are set, reheat white chocolate, if needed, then add 1/4 cup of melted white chocolate to piping bag or ziploc bag (with a small slit). Caution: chocolate will be hot, please be careful.
- Drizzle mummy lines on each Mummy Date.
- After dates have set about 15 to 30 seconds, add spooky mummy eyes.
- Next, place Mummy Dates in the freezer for an additional 20 to 30 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Use two 11-ounce bags of white baking chocolate if you can't find the 22-ounce bag. I typically use Ghiradelli.
- Instead of white chocolate, you can use 24 ounces of Vanilla Almond Bark (one block). You can find Almond Bark at your local grocery store, including Aldi or Trader Joe's.
- Add a few drops of canola oil to white chocolate when stirring to ensure that it has a smooth consistency.
