Yield Makes 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 5

3/4 cup whole skin-on almonds
12 ounces dark chocolate (60 percent to 70 percent cocoa)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
toasted almonds
1/3 cup dried tart cherries

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, toast 3/4 cup whole skin-on almonds until fragrant and light gold, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely; transfer to a bowl. Fill a medium saucepan with 1 inch water; bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Set a large heatproof bowl atop saucepan, making sure water doesn't touch bottom of bowl. Place 10 ounces dark chocolate (60 percent to 70 percent cocoa) in bowl; cook, stirring, until smooth. Remove bowl from saucepan; add another 2 ounces dark chocolate and stir until smooth. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, toasted almonds and 1/3 cup dried tart cherries, coarsely chopped. Pour onto baking sheet; spread into an even layer about 1/4 inch thick. Refrigerate until firm, 1 hour. Break into 24 pieces.

I'm not usually a fan of dark chocolate, but I really enjoyed the dark chocolate in this recipe. It was rich and decadent without being too sweet.

I was a little skeptical about the combination of cherries and chocolate, but it turned out to be amazing! The tartness of the cherries really balanced out the sweetness of the chocolate.
