Amber Kunik Snack Mix
Makes 2 cups
Ingredients
- 10-12 dates, pits removed
- 1/2 wheel Amber Kunik
- 1 cup pistachios, shelled removed
- 3 oz. dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
Instructions
- In a dry skillet, add dates and cook over medium-high heat until dates start to blacken on one side, about 3 minutes. Shake pan to char the other sides of the dates. Once they start to have black spots and start to look moistened and soft, remove from heat. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Chop each date into bite-sized pieces and add to a medium mixing bowl.
- Shave a bit of the rind off the half-wheel of cheese. Using a paring knife, insert the tip of the knife into a corner of the cheese and gently twist your wrist to break off an irregular bite-sized crumble of cheese. Repeat until the entire piece is crumbled. Alternatively, you can dice the cheese into bite-sized pieces.
- Combine the cheese crumbles, chopped chocolate, and shelled pistachios into the bowl with the charred dates and stir to combine.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
