I cannot escape dates. My entire social media feed consists of date recipes both sweet and savory, and I must admit, I have become obsessed. Apart from using date syrup in my coffee nearly every day, I probably consume 2-3 dates on a daily basis because of their rich, unique sweetness, which can’t be compared to any other fruit or sweet treat. In response to both the internet’s and my own obsession with dates, I finally recreated the date caramel “Twix” bars that had been infiltrating my feed.
These chocolate covered date bars happen to be gluten free and vegan, and delicious all the same. Plus, you can cut the three-layered dessert into long bars shaped like actual Twix, and they’re perfect for sharing with your family or for the week’s dessert meal prep. For my version of these widely circulated date bars, I combined a few different recipes.
