Samoa Caramel Apples with Date Caramel

If you haven't already made the date caramel sauce, it's pretty easy!
To a food processor, add softened pitted dates, almond milk, vanilla extract, and salt.
Blend well until fully combined.
If you prefer, you can thin the sauce out with warm water. Pour a couple tablespoons at a time, blending afterwards, to ensure you get the perfect consistency.
Reserve ½ cup for the Samoa Caramel Apples.

In a small bowl, mix together the date caramel and shredded coconut. Set aside.
Wash the apples, turn them on their side, and slice into ¼ inch thick slices.
Using a teaspoon, melon baller, or large metal straw - remove the apple core from the slices. Set the slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Add a bit of the caramel-coconut mixture to each apple slice.
Heat up the chocolate chips in the microwave in 30 second intervals until melted. Pour the melted chocolate into a pastry bag or Ziploc bag.
Cut a small hole in the tip of the bag, and drizzle chocolate on the apples.
Add the pan to the refrigerator for a few minutes until the chocolate sets.
Serve immediately. Enjoy!
