Why You’ll Love These Healthy Snickers Stuffed Dates

Viral TikTok Fame: If you’ve been scrolling TikTok, you’ve likely seen these stuffed dates popping up everywhere! Dubbed the “healthy Snickers” by creators, this trend has taken off for good reason—it’s a simple, wholesome take on the beloved candy bar that everyone’s obsessed with recreating at home.

Effortless, Trendy Treat: These dates are so easy to make, yet they look fancy enough to impress your friends (and your TikTok followers). Whether you’re hopping on the trend or just craving something sweet, they’re the perfect way to indulge while staying on track with your health goals.

Substitutions

Dates: Use pitted Medjool dates, which are very large and caramel-like. They should easily squish when pinched with your fingers. You can swap in another type of date variety, but these are the largest and softest type, and work best for this recipe.

Semisweet Chocolate: Check the ingredient label to make sure the chocolate is vegan. It should not contain milk or milk powder. Swap with darker chocolate, for less sugar (it will be more bitter though). Or you can also find brands of healthier, lower sugar vegan semisweet chocolate as well.

Peanut Butter: Use creamy or chunky peanut butter, but look for the natural type. It should only contain 100% peanuts on the ingredient label. Common peanut butters that you’ll find in the breakfast aisle will usually contain added sugars and oils. You can use this one as well, but it’s not the healthiest option. You can also use almond butter, cashew butter or another nut butter of choice.

Peanuts: Look for roasted peanuts, which bring out the peanut flavor more than raw peanuts. You can also use un-roasted peanuts, and lightly toast them in a skillet at home. Swap in with slivered almonds or another nut, if desired.

Healthy Snickers Stuffed Dates Recipe Notes

  • Sprinkle the chocolate-coated dates with extra toppings like shredded coconut or raw cacao nibs!
  • Tip: Freeze the dates to make the chocolate and peanuts have an extra crunch, and the dates become even chewier after being frozen. This tastes even better than being refrigerated (in my opinion).
