EASY APPLE DATE DOUGHNUTS

Instructions

1. Slice the apple into thin discs and use an apple corer to remove the center from each disc.
2. Remove pits from dates if needed then mash dates together to make a “caramel”.
3. Add a thin layer of mashed dates to one surface of an apple disc.
4. Sandwich with another apple slice.
5. Add half of chocolate to a microwave-safe dish and microwave for ~1 min 30 sec.
6. Stir then cover each apple date doughnut in chocolate.
7. Set each chocolate-covered apple disc on parchment paper and add toppings if desired.
8. Place the apples in the freezer for ~5 min to let the chocolate harden. Or eat them at room temperature.
