Also, if you really want to eat this jam instead of Nutella, I suggest the recipe below:
CHOCOLATE JAM RECIPES – LINDT Chocolate
Follow all the steps above.
Cook dates, prunes and water until desired consistency.
Remove from heat and add 3 oz or about 90 grams of Lindt chocolate, chopped.
Stir until chocolate is melted.
Cool and transfer to the jars.
Top with chopped walnuts, hazelnuts if you want to.
Quick Note
Dates – I used organic, pitted dates by Royal Palm. They are full of nutrients, high in protein, with healthy carbs, fats and fiber. So, please use the organic dates if you can. The cost of 170 gr or 6 oz is $3.99. (Winners)
Prunes – are just dried plumbs. For this recipe I used pitted prunes by Basse. (check online website like amazon or visit healthy stores near you). Also, prunes are source of potassium, high in vitamins, fiber.
