Ingredients
- 300 grams dark chocolate chips
- 200 grams raw mixed nuts (almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts, etc.)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
Directions
Step 1
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
Create a double boiler by filling a small pot with about 2 inches of water and placing a heatproof bowl on top, ensuring that the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water.
Step 3
Add the dark chocolate chips and coconut oil to the bowl. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Step 4
Remove the bowl from the heat and let the chocolate cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, add the mixed nuts. Pour the melted chocolate over the nuts and stir until all the nuts are evenly coated.
Step 6
Using a spoon, drop clusters of the chocolate-covered nuts onto the prepared baking sheet. You can make individual clusters or spread the mixture out as a single layer if preferred.
Step 7
Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over each cluster and add sprinkles for decoration if desired.
Step 8
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has fully hardened.
Step 9
Once set, transfer the chocolate-covered nuts to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or serve immediately.
