I made this Vegan Chocolate Almond Clusters for my family’s Sunday brunch last month. The almonds stayed easy in three ingredients, and my mom loved them.
Quick and Delicious Vegan Chocolate Almond Clusters
These vegan chocolate almond clusters combine the sweetness of dark chocolate with the nutty crunch of almonds. The recipe takes only about 15 minutes to prepare and sets in the refrigerator, yielding a delightful treat that serves 6.
Ingredients
- 1 cup dark vegan chocolate chips
- 1 cup whole almonds (or chopped, if preferred)
- A pinch of sea salt (optional)
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the dark vegan chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth and fully melted.
- Combine with Almonds: Stir in the whole almonds into the melted chocolate until they are well coated with chocolate.
- Form Clusters: Use a spoon to drop spoonfuls of the chocolate-almond mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming clusters.
- Sprinkle with Salt: If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the clusters before they set.
- Chill to Set: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has hardened.
- Serve: Once set, enjoy the clusters immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for later.
