Perfectly crunchy, healthy, and perfectly chocolatey almonds can be yours with just a few ingredients and 10 minutes. It's WAY healthier and cheaper than the store-bought stuff. Go ahead...get nutty.
Optional: ⅛ tsp fine table salt, plus more if needed (highly recommended, for a bit of salty and sweet!)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F, with rack on middle position. Spread raw almonds into a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet (unlined.) Bake 10 minutes, stopping once to shake the pan in between bake time. Almonds should be toasty and fragrant, but not burnt. Pour toasted almonds into a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and stir to completely coat. Spread coated almonds back out onto baking sheet to cool completely.
Store chocolate cocoa almonds in airtight container up to several weeks.
