Van de Sandt argues that the Didache consists of a composition of other earlier writings with the final form coming together near the end of the 1st cent by a final editor he calls the Didachist.
As to its dating, this seems to be based on his analysis of the Jerusalem Codex as can be seen on page 21 of this work
The link above goes to a Google online version of the book. Perhaps you can find more information in it concerning his reasoning but unfortunately I don't have the time right now.
I should add that in his The Didache: A window on the earliest Christians Thomas O'Loughlin apparently puts it at some point during the mid to late first century
