Categories     Breakfast     Dessert     Snack

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup packed pitted dates (deglect noor recommended)
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup Quick-1 minute Oats
1 cup Old fashioned Oats
3/4 cup shelled pistachios (chopped)
1/2 cup miniature dark chocolate chips
1 cup dark or milk chocolate chips
2 teaspoons coconut oil

Steps:

  • Line an 8 x 8 pan with parchment paper or foil with an overhang for easy removal. Don't spray with cooking spray as it makes these greasy. Set aside.
  • In a small blender jar (I use the Twister jar for Blendtec) or a food processor, pulse the pitted dates to create a very thick and sticky paste. (If your dates aren't moist, soak in warm water and then drain and dry very well)
  • Scoop out the date paste and place in a bowl.
  • Slightly warm up the peanut butter and maple syrup in the microwave (like 20 seconds) and stir into the date paste. Stir well.
  • Add in the vanilla extract.
  • Stir in the quick oats and the old fashioned oats.
  • Add in the miniature chocolate chips and chopped pistachios
  • Knead with your hands to get it all well mixed.
  • Press into the prepared 8 x 8 baking pan and set aside while assembling the melted chocolate.
  • In a large microwave safe bowl combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil (measured when the oil is in a hardened state).
  • Microwave in bursts of 15 seconds stirring in between each burst for 15 seconds until melted.
  • Pour evenly over the bars and tip the pan around to move the chocolate in an even layer on top.
  • Place in the fridge (covered) until the chocolate is completely set.
  • Remove from the pan and cut into bars.
  • Store in the fridge, covered.

Vincent's Pistachio-Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies image

I wanted to make this with white chocolate but my boyfriend is not a fan of white chocolate. So I used dark chocolate (both of us love dark chocolate.) If you love sweet and salty treats, this is for you.

Categories     Chocolate Chip Cookies

Time 40m

¼ cup crushed pistachios
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

¾ cup brown sugar
¾ cup white sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup crushed pistachios
½ cup dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats (such as Silpat®).

  • Drop tablespoonfuls of dough 3/4 inch apart onto the prepared baking sheets.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
  • Use good quality chocolate: The chocolate you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your crisps. Look for a high-quality dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%. Avoid using chocolate chips, as they contain stabilizers that can prevent the chocolate from melting smoothly.
  • Toast the pistachios: Toasting the pistachios will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant. You can toast them in a toaster oven or in a skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to watch them closely so they don't burn.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the crisps tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the crisps until they are just set: The crisps should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.

Conclusion:

Pistachio dark chocolate crisps are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They're crispy, chocolatey, and packed with flavor. Plus, they're gluten-free and can be made vegan with a few simple substitutions. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give these pistachio dark chocolate crisps a try.
