Baking sheet
Heatproof bowl
- 2 cups raw unsalted almonds
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 8 oz. bittersweet chocolate
- Flaky sea salt
Step 1: Roast the Almonds
Step 2: Prepare the Chocolate
Step 3: Add Espresso Powder and Honey
Step 4: Coating the Almonds
Step 5: Let Them Set
Using a fork, remove each chocolate-covered almond, allowing excess chocolate to drip off. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Before they set, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on each almond. Let them cool at room temperature until the chocolate firms up.
- Freshness Matters: Use fresh, high-quality almonds for the best taste.
- Uniform Roasting: Shake the baking sheet midway through roasting to ensure even cooking.
- Melt Carefully: Avoid water splashes in the chocolate; it can seize.
- Uniform Coating: Stir gently to avoid breaking the almonds.
- Cooling Time: Allow ample time for cooling to get that perfect firm texture.
