  • 2 cups raw whole almonds
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Prepare tray: Line a flat baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Melt chocolate: Place the chocolate chips in a heatproof mixing bowl over a pot of simmering water and gently melt on low heat, stirring occasionally until smooth. If using chocolate blocks, roughly chop them first.
  • Add peanut butter: Stir through until combined.
  • Coat almonds: Add the almonds to the melted chocolate and mix until evenly coated.
  • Form clusters: Using a tablespoon, scoop out small bundles of the coated almonds, letting any excess chocolate drip back into the bowl, and place them onto the prepared tray, shaping them into clusters.
  • Set: Leave the clusters to set at room temperature or refrigerate until firm. Enjoy!

Notes

Store clusters in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1 to 10 days.
To freeze, place clusters in a freezer-friendly container or zip-lock bags. Label with the date and freeze for 2-3 months.
To thaw, place in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight until soft enough to bite into.
