Instructions
In a food processor, mix together all of the base ingredients: almond flour, peanut butter, medjool dates, water, vanilla extract and salt. If the mixture is too crumbly/fine-grain and doesn’t form together when you press it in your hands, add another tablespoon of water. Evenly distribute the mixture into silicone cupcake molds. Use your fingers to flatten the mixture into the molds. Place in the freezer to set while you make the date caramel.
¾ cup almond flour, 3 tablespoons runny peanut butter, 3 medjool dates, 1-2 tablespoons water, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, pinch of salt
In the food processor, combine all the of the date caramel ingredients: medjool dates, peanut butter, non-dairy milk, vanilla extract and salt. Process until it turns smooth. If needed, add a splash more non-dairy milk to make it smooth and creamy.
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the date caramel and spread on top of the base.
Sprinkle peanuts on top of the caramel mixture and gently press the peanuts into the date caramel so they stick.
½ cup peanuts

Notes
If your medjool dates are dried up, add them to a bowl with hot water and soak for 5-10 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
