These date bars are so easy to make. You’ll just need your food processor to make these delicious treats. You don’t need to even turn on the oven to make this healthy dessert either. I love anything that is a no bake recipe.

The combination of peanut butter and cocoa powder is just so good. For this recipe, I used natural peanut butter, but you can also use regular peanut butter too.

On a side note, when I was making this recipe, my kids were running around the kitchen demanding snacks. I was trying to toss these ingredients into the food processor as quickly as possible. All I wanted to do was get this recipe in the fridge, and cut up some fruit for their snacks. During the chaos, I ended up putting the lid of the food processor on the wrong way. I tried everything to get it off without breaking the lid. It was extremely frustrating. Just at the moment I was going to give up, and forget about the bars, my husband was home in time to get it off. 🙂
