Ingredients

  • 1 cup blanched slivered almonds
  • 1 tablespoon + 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil measured while solid
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 10 oz dark chocolate chunks or chips
  • 1 teaspoon flaked sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees 
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and place almonds down and spread out so that they are flat
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 8 - 10 minutes, checking often, until toasty brown but not burnt
  • In a saucepan or double boiler, add coconut oil, chocolate chunks, and vanilla extract
  • Stir on low heat until completely melted (be careful not to burn)
  • Add in almonds and stir to combine
  • Line an 8 by 8 baking dish with wax paper and pour in the chocolate mixture
  • Use a rubber spatula to flatten out the chocolate evenly into the pan
  • Sprinkle with sea salt flakes (you can use less if you don't like salty sweet, but it really adds a lot of flavor in my opinion) 
  • Refrigerate for an hour, or until set
  • Store in the fridge or freezer
