Ingredients
Directions
- PRE-HEAT THE OVEN TO 150ËC/130ËC FAN/GAS 2.
- TOAST - Place the almonds on a baking tray and toast in the oven for about 10 minutes. Check regularly to prevent the almonds burning and becoming bitter.

- MELT - Melt the chocolate in a bain-marie.
- COAT - Add the toasted almonds to the chocolate and stir to coat. Turn the heat off but leave the mixture in the bain-marie.

- CHILL - Chill for at least 2 hours before serving. Keeps for two weeks in an airtight container.
