Make a delicious Chili Chocolate Almond Bark. This recipe combines rich chocolate, crunchy toasted almonds, and a hint of spice for a satisfying sweet and spicy treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup raw almonds, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder (or more, to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)
  • Pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Toast the almonds: Spread the chopped almonds on a dry skillet over medium heat. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Melt the chocolate: Place the chopped chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, until smooth. Alternatively, melt over a double boiler.
  4. Stir in spices: Once the chocolate is smooth, stir in the chili powder and cayenne pepper, if using. Mix until fully incorporated.
  5. Spread the chocolate: Pour the melted chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Use an offset spatula to spread it into an even layer, about 1/4 inch thick.
  6. Add toppings: Immediately sprinkle the toasted almonds and a pinch of sea salt evenly over the chocolate. Gently press the almonds into the chocolate so they adhere.
  7. Chill: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator. Let it chill for at least 1 hour, or until the bark is completely firm.
  8. Break and serve: Once firm, lift the bark using the parchment paper. Break it into irregular pieces. Store leftover bark in an airtight container.

Notes

  • You control the heat. Adjust the chili powder and cayenne to match your spice preference.
  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor.
  • Make sure your almonds are fully toasted for maximum crunch.
