Slice the date lengthwise to create a pocket. Fill the center with the almond butter, then press the sides together to close.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate and one-third of the almond milk. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir, and microwave for 30 seconds more until completely melted. Let the mixture cool for 1 minute.
Stir the salt and the protein powder into the melted chocolate using a small spatula or spoon. The mixture will be very thick. Stir in the remaining almond milk. Add the water 1 teaspoon at a time, stirring well after each addition, until the frosting is smooth and slowly drips off the spoon.
Line a plate with parchment paper. Dip the stuffed date into the chocolate frosting, turning to cover it completely. Place on the plate and spoon any remaining frosting over the date. Freeze for 5 minutes until the coating is firm.
