Ingredients

  • 2 cups Almonds
  • 16 ounces Dark chocolate (or semisweet chocolate)
  • 0.5 teaspoons Sea salt (optional, for garnish)
  • 1 teaspoons Coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the almonds in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast them for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fragrant. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely.

Step 2

While the almonds are cooling, prepare the chocolate. Chop the dark chocolate into small, evenly sized pieces to ensure smooth melting.

Step 3

Using a double boiler, melt the chocolate over low heat. Stir gently and continuously until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted. If desired, add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil to help achieve a glossy finish.

Step 4

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Once the roasted almonds are completely cool, mix them into the melted chocolate until all the almonds are evenly coated.

Step 5

Pour the chocolate-coated almonds onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread the mixture evenly with a spatula to form a thin, even layer.

Step 6

Optional: Sprinkle a light dusting of sea salt on top of the bark for a sweet-and-salty flavor.

Step 7

Allow the almond bark to cool and set at room temperature for about 2 hours, or place it in the refrigerator for 30-45 minutes to speed up the process.

Step 8

Once the bark is fully set, break it into bite-sized pieces using your hands or a knife. Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
