Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups raw whole almonds unsalted
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 2 TB unsweetened real cocoa powder
- Optional: ⅛ tsp fine table salt plus more if needed (highly recommended, for a bit of salty and sweet!)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F, with rack on middle position. Spread raw almonds into a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet (unlined.) Bake 10 minutes, stopping once to shake the pan in between bake time. Almonds should be toasty and fragrant, but not burnt. Pour toasted almonds into a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and stir to completely coat. Spread coated almonds back out onto baking sheet to cool completely.
- Store chocolate cocoa almonds in airtight container up to several weeks.
