Description
An easy no-bake treat with glossy dark chocolate and crunchy toasted almonds, perfect for gifts and satisfying cravings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 300 g dark chocolate (60–75% cacao)
- 150 g whole raw almonds (about 1 1/4 cups)
- Flaky sea salt (about 1/4 tsp, to finish)
- 1 tsp neutral oil (optional, such as grapeseed)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Spread almonds on a baking sheet and toast for 8–10 minutes, stirring once. Cool for 5 minutes.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat. Measure dark chocolate into a heatproof bowl.
- Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water and melt the chocolate, stirring frequently, until smooth (about 5–7 minutes).
- If needed, stir in neutral oil to loosen thick chocolate. Mix in toasted almonds, reserving some for topping.
- Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle with reserved almonds and flaky salt.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 20–30 minutes until set. Break into pieces to serve.
Notes
For a nut-free version, replace almonds with roasted pumpkin seeds or toasted coconut flakes. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
