Ingredients

  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, roughly chopped
  • 1 pound roasted almonds (salted or unsalted)
  • Flaky sea salt, for sprinkling, optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. Place the chocolate in a large heatproof glass bowl and melt, on low-power, in 15 second increments, stirring after each increment, until completely melted. You may also melt the chocolate using a double broiler, if you prefer.
  3. Whisk the chocolate smooth and add in almonds; use a spatula to stir, making sure each almond is coated in chocolate. Use a spoon to scoop clusters of the almonds onto the prepared baking sheet. You can make them as large or small as you'd like, but I find 2 tablespoons to be the perfect size.
  4. Sprinkle the wet chocolate with a little sea salt, if using.
  5. Allow clusters to set completely before serving. You may place them in the fridge to speed this process up.

Notes

  • For best results, I recommend using high-quality almonds and chocolate. I do not recommend using chocolate chips for melting chocolate. Chocolate Almond clusters will keep, stored in the fridge, for 1 month. I suggest bringing the almond clusters to room temperature before serving.
