These dark chocolate covered caramel almonds were supposed to make it onto the blog before Valentine’s. So, what happened? Basically, I have no one to blame but myself, and my disorganized ways. I based these off of a recipe from a cookbook that I have, but I made some changes that I wrote down on a little scrap of paper.

Well, I have two little kids and a baby, and little scraps of paper tend to end up with one of these three fates:

  1. Scribbled all over and then cut up by my kids.
  2. Accidentally thrown into the recycling bin when I do a quick cleanup.
  3. Falls to the floor and goes right into baby’s mouth.

It’s amazing how quickly my 9 month old can scoot over to any type of paper that falls to the floor. It’s her favorite food. I have to dig the pulp out from her clenched jaws.

Anyways, I lost the recipe right before I was going to write it up. I had the pictures taken and everything! And with this and that, I just didn’t get around to remaking them to double check the ingredient amounts. This isn’t the first time I’ve had this happen to me… so now I make sure to jot my notes down on my phone.

Dark Chocolate covered Almonds!

Last night I hosted a bookclub meeting at my place, so I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to remake these! They are roasty from the almonds, have a nice crunch from the caramelized sugar, and finish with a smooth chocolate coating and rich dark chocolate cocoa powder dusting.

These dark chocolate covered almonds are so good, I can sit down with a bowl and eat an absurd amount before my husband walks over and says, wait, how many have you eaten?! Then I tell him to go away.

Anyways, these chocolate covered caramel almonds would’ve been a great Valentine’s treat, but let’s be real. They’re great any time. Chocolate is great anytime, so be sure to look at my other chocolate dessert recipes.
