{Recipe} Viral Date Snickers Bark

 Here's another in my series of "Tiktok made me do it" posts.

I kept seeing people make this healthier Snickers treat and just had to try it myself.

I didn't use an exact recipe but got the general gist of the recipe and gathered my supplies.

Recipe:

Soft Medjool Dates-I used the Trader Joe's pitted date for extra laziness

Drippy Peanut butter-I used Kirkland brand

Chocolate chips-I used semi sweet

Peanuts-chopped (I used salted)

Flaky salt (optional)

To make:

• Split the dates in half and remove pit (if applicable). Press dates onto a wax paper lined tray and place right next to each other.  I used 16 dates.
• Cover with waxed paper and press down to make sure the dates are touching each other and flattened out.  I used a rolling pin to press the dates out.

• Pour peanut butter over the dates and spread to cover. I didn't measure but I'd say I used about 2 heaping tablespoons of peanut butter.

• Melt chocolate chips and pour over the peanut butter layer. Spread to cover all of the dates. I used about 1/2 cup of chocolate chips.

• Some people added a sprinkle of flaky salt here but I left that out because the peanuts were salted but I think the added salt would have been just fine.
• Sprinkle the peanuts over the chocolate.  
• Freeze or refrigerate until chocolate has firmed up.

• Cut into squares. I keep mine in the fridge.

Enjoy a healthy-ish Snickers like treat!

Super Bowl CHAMPIONS!!

 We had a quiet Super Bowl Sunday but a great one! E-A-G-L-E-S!

The Champs!

We took a morning beach walk sporting our Eagles spirit.  We had a group chat going with Mr. Click's family to see everyone in their Eagles gear.

We needed to keep busy (why is the game on SO late?) so we hung up our new blinds in the bedroom.  It felt good to get a house job done. We also had food to prepare. We were invited to watch with friends but Mr Click could not watch with any KC fans so it was just the two of us.

We planned a snack-y dinner for the two of us.  

On the menu:

Buffalo Chick Pea Dip

Buffalo Cauliflower "Wings" & Homemade Ranch

Soft Pretzel Sticks

Trader Joe's Southwestern Salad

Tuna

Veggies and Dippers

I'm usually too tense to watch the whole game but I was able to get through this one. So exciting!

We celebrated with some Caymus cabernet.

Willow got in on the fun too.   It was definitely a Super Bowl for the memory books!

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday! Here are some things I've been loving lately.

{one year ago}

Celebrating one year in our new home! We've done so much to the house and are loving our new town and area.

OPI Nail Envy. I've been using this polish with the OPI Repair Mode.  I hope they come out with more colors.  This is my favorite neutral called Double Nude-y.

Going to yoga at my local studio. This was a very chill evening class. 

One of my old friends (we met in middle school homeroom!) came to see the new house and Mr. Click's band. It was a fun night!

My beautiful Valentine's Day flowers.  We also went out for a nice meal on Saturday and to see Captain America a Brave New World.  I love the new 'Cap!

These cropped corduroy Maddy pants from Costco. They are a really good dupe of the Anthro Colette pants that I love and a MUCH better price point!  What have you been loving lately?
