Ingredients
- 3/4 cup almonds whole raw, 90g
- 10 oz. dark chocolate chocolate chips or chocolate bars, 60-70% cocoa
- coconut oil optional (see notes)
- 1/2 cup dried cherries roughly chop or leave as is, 80g
- 1/4 cup coconut, shredded I used sweetened, 30g
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add almonds to the baking sheet and spread out. Toast in the oven for 10 minutes or until toasted and fragrant. Let cool completely.
- Melt chocolate and coconut oil (in a double boiler over medium-low heat or in the microwave in 20 second increments). Stir until smooth.
- Stir in the toasted almonds, dried cherries and shredded coconut (save some of each for topping).
- Pour chocolate mixture into a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (small to medium in size, can use the same pan if it's cooled down), spread evenly with a spatula about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle extra almonds, dried cherries and shredded coconut on top if desired.
- Chill into firm– refrigerate for an hour or freeze for 30 minutes. Break into even size pieces. Stack a few up and tie in a bow to give to a friend!
Notes
- I used a bag of Ghirardelli dark chocolate chips (this brand melts really well so I didn’t need to use any coconut oil but if needed you can stir in 1-2 teaspoons of melted coconut oil to get the chocolate smoother.
