Vegan Salted Caramel Protein Bars

Combine the dates, peanut butter, vanilla protein, almond milk, and sea salt in a food processor and blend on high until well-combined. Once a thick, sticky ball forms, remove the batter from the processor and press it into a greased loaf tin. Place in the freezer to set for about an hour. Remove from the freezer and carefully cut the frozen batter out of the tin. Place on a parchment paper lined plate and pour melted chocolate over the top. Sprinkle roasted peanuts over the chocolate and place back in the freezer to set. Once set, remove and cut into bars. Store in the freezer and thaw for a few minutes before eating.
