Making Chocolate Covered Almonds is a delightful and easy process. Begin by roughly chopping or breaking up dark chocolate and placing it in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the chocolate on high for 30 seconds, stir, and repeat 1-2 more times until it’s fully melted. Meanwhile, toast your almonds on a lined baking sheet for 6–8 minutes or until they turn golden brown and release a strong aroma. Once the chocolate is melted and smooth, stir in the almonds, ensuring they are fully coated. Spread this mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, separating the almonds as much as possible.
The allure of these treats lies in their perfect balance of flavors and textures. The fragrant almond aroma blends seamlessly with high-quality milk chocolate, delivering a smooth yet satisfying crunch in each bite. For a luxurious twist, Rita Farhi offers Milk, White, and Dark Chocolate Covered Almonds in a Handmade Papier Machè Bonbonnière, making it an exquisite chocolate gift box.
If you’re looking for a convenient purchase option, consider the Chocolate Covered Almonds (ad) from various brands. These almonds, coated in vegan chocolate and dusted with cacao powder, are a vegan-friendly option. Additionally, Blue Diamond’s Oven Roasted Dark Chocolate Flavored Snack Nuts offer a resealable bag option for those who prefer dark chocolate.
