• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
• 0.5 cup Chopped almonds
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Once melted, add the low carb sweetener and stir until completely dissolved.

Step 4

Add the heavy cream, cocoa powder, and sea salt. Cook and stir continuously over medium heat until the mixture begins to simmer gently.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and almond flour until smoothly combined. The mixture should begin to thicken.

Step 7

Fold in the chopped almonds and unsweetened chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed.

Step 8

Pour the nougat mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 9

Allow the nougat to cool to room temperature, then transfer it to the refrigerator. Chill for at least 2 hours or until firm.

Step 10

Once firm, lift the nougat out of the dish using the parchment overhang and cut into 16 squares or bars.

Step 11

Store the chocolate nougat in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain its firmness. Enjoy!
