Date delicasy with chocolate

Dates are great!
I want to share with you this amazingly easy yet so very tasty date delicacy recipe.

Date delicacy

Pitted dates 250 g. / 8,8 oz.
Unsalted butter  190 g. / 6,7 oz.
Brown sugar   90 g. / 3,2 oz.
Rice Krispies   2 1/2 - 3 cups
Dark chocolate    300 g / 10,6 oz.

1. Cut the dates into 2 - 3 pieces each (not necessary). 
2. Combine dates, butter and brown sugar in a casserole and cook over medium or high heat stirring the mixture carefully now and then. 
3. When the dates are soft and falling apart, take the mixture of the heat and stir well until it holds together like a dough.
4. Now stir in the Rice Crispies. 
5. When all is well blended transfer the mixture into a large and shallow tin pan and flatten it out using the back of a tablespoon. Make sure to press well down on the mixture to condense and flatten it.
6. Cover the pan and freeze.
7. Melt the chocolate in a metal bowl over boiling water. Spread the chocolate over the frozen mixture and freeze again.
8. Before serving cut the date delicacy in small square pieces or use small cake cutters to make shaped pieces. 

This is a very simple recipe and its easy to change it to your liking so try using white or milk chocolate as topping or change the cereal to cornflakes. 

Enjoy
