Dark Chocolate Bark with Smoked Almonds

 

This was another DIY Christmas present project that couldn’t have been easier.

You will need:

a 9×13 baking pan

parchment paper

1/2 pound dark chocolate (I used 70% cacao)

1/4-1/2 cup smoked almonds, chopped

Cover bottom and edges of pan with parchment paper. Place chocolate on parchment coated pan and place in a warm oven until melty enough to spread. I left the door open and checked on it every 30 seconds or so. When chocolate is melted, spread over the bottom of the pan with a spatula and sprinkle with chopped smoked almonds. Press down any big pieces so they stick. Place pan in refrigerator or freezer until firm and then break into chunks.
