Ingredients

  • 1 cup almonds
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • ½ cup shelled pistachios
  • 1 tsp coconut oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Finely chop the 0.5 cup pistachios and place them in a shallow bowl.

  2. 2

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the 1 cup dark chocolate chips and 1 tsp coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between, until melted and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the 1 cup almonds to the melted chocolate and stir until every almond is fully coated.

  4. 4

    Using a fork, lift each almond out of the chocolate, letting excess drip off, then roll it in the chopped pistachios until covered.

  5. 5

    Place the coated almonds on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate until the chocolate is set and firm, about 15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Store in an airtight container in the fridge. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
