Add boiling water to the dates and soak them for 10 minutes.
Split the dates open and discard the pit if your dates are not pitted.
Place the dates on the prepared baking sheet
Top the baking sheet with another piece of parchment paper and press down on the dates with the bottom of a sturdy glass to flatten them. Discard the parchment paper.
Drizzle the peanut butter over the dates and spread with a spoon to create an even layer.
Add the chocolate chips to a small pot and bring the heat to medium. (Or heat up in the microwave.)
Stir for 5 minutes or until the chocolate is melted.
Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer and smooth out with a spoon.
Sprinkle with flaky salt.
Cover and freeze for a minimum of 1 hour
Break apart the bark into about 15 pieces, add more flaky salt, and serve.
