Ingredients

  • 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons melted dark chocolate

  • 1 1/2 cups whole almonds

Directions

  • Melt the Dark Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in 30-second increments, stirring in between until smooth and fully melted. Alternatively, you can melt it using a double boiler on the stovetop.
  • Coat the Almonds: Add the whole almonds to the melted chocolate, stirring to coat each almond thoroughly.
  • Form Clusters: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a spoon, drop spoonfuls of the chocolate-coated almonds onto the sheet, forming clusters.
  • Chill the Clusters: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened completely.
  • Serve: Once set, remove the clusters from the fridge and enjoy them as a tasty snack or dessert. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
