Method
Gather and prepare your ingredients. Preheat the oven to 150°C/130°C fan. Line a small (13.5x16.5cm) loaf tin with parchment paper.
Place the peanut butter, medjool dates, cacao powder and egg whites into a small blender. Blend until smooth.
Scrape into your prepared loaf tin. If desired, sprinkle with cacao nibs or dark chocolate.
Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the tin and allow to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. Sprinkle with flaky salt while the chocolate is still melted.

Soo delicious! Really simple to make, these are a regular treat in our home
100g egg whites is roughly 3 eggs. Bought a whole carton of eggs misunderstanding the direction.
I think it needs less cacao and a could do with with something to make it less dry eg add yoghurt to the mix
Just tried the first bite — delicious! A very easy treat and an affordable replacement for commercial bars w/similar ingredients.
Peculiar taste and texture. MAde at the same time as the peanut cookies which I loved
Nice texture but bland/not sweet enough
This recipe did not work. Such a tiny amount made, following quantities in the recipe and when cooked it is dry with an unpleasant texture. I may try playing around with the quantities and may be adding in almond flour or wheat flour but as written, this recipe doesn't work in my opinion.
So fudgy!!! I did not expect them to taste as good as they did with so few ingredients - giving Snickers vibes!
It’s a bit bitter - recommend to add nuts in addition to salt.
A question about this recipe, please. The size of loaf tin is specified but not which set of ingredients to follow for that tin. 4 may be too few and 8 too many? Hope this makes sense. Thanks!
Yum!
Amazing, more like this please, thank you
Smells amazing when cooking, lovely warm but chocolate heaven straight from the freezer. Made a double batch and froze into bite sized pieces
So easy to make and totally delicious!
Very indulgence unsure if used correct amount of dark chocolate to add found it very hard measure two tablespoons of dark chocolate prefer a exact amount of measure in grams as felt was very luxurious.
My first attempt at this made a small ball of mixture that wouldn’t even fill a quarter of a loaf tin. So I doubled the recipe to serve 8. This was better, it made more of a loose paste.
I think it could have been one of two things: the quantity of ingredients - it came up automatically to serve 4, or possibly the Medjool dates - maybe they needed soaking first?! Who knows. It’s in the oven now though!
