Chocolate Covered Dates with Pumpkin Seeds and Sea Salt

Directions

1. 1
   Make sure you remove the pits from your dates. You can buy them pre-pitted, but that's not usually the case.
2. 2
   Place the pumpkin seeds in a small bowl and set aside. Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper.
3. 3
   Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl, and heat for one minute. Stir, and if needed, microwave in 10 second intervals until melted and smooth.
4. 4
   Dip the pitted Medjool dates into the melted chocolate, coating all sides, then roll in the pumpkin seeds.
5. 5
   Place on the cookie sheet.
6. 6
   Repeat with remaining dates.
7. 7
   Sprinkle sea salt flakes on top of all the dates.
8. 8
   Refrigerate until the chocolate is firm, about 45 minutes.
