Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
Bring a frying pan to a medium heat and add the coconut. Stir to toast until golden brown. Remove from the heat and tip into a small mixing bowl straight away to prevent from burning.
Add the pistachio butter to the bowl with the coconut. Stir until well combined.
Half fill a large saucepan with water and top with a heatproof mixing bowl. Bring to a boil, break the dark chocolate up and add the dark chocolate into the bowl. Stir while the chocolate melts. Once it’s completely melted, carefully remove from the heat.
While the chocolate is melting, pick up a date and stuff with the pistachio and coconut mixture and place onto the baking tray. Repeat this step until all of the dates have been stuffed.
Place a stuffed date onto a dessert spoon and use a second dessert spoon to coat the date with melted chocolate. Place onto the baking tray and repeat this step with all of the stuffed dates.
Place the dates into the refrigerator for approximately one hour or until set. Transfer the dates to an airtight container to store in the fridge for up to two weeks.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. These are my favourite airtight containers.
