After your dates are frozen, melt your chocolate chips and dip each date into the dissolved substance.

Top with your favourite toppings; mine are unsweetened coconut shreds and crushed pecans.
Preferences:
-
Fresh dates are much easier to make this recipe with as they are soft and easy to cut.
-
Using whole ingredients is vital to clean eating, and ensuring your butter spread has minimal ingredients / clean ingredients is essential.
-
This also goes for toppings; if you limit your sugar intake, ensuring your coconut shreds are unsweetened is essential.
