Description

Crunchy, nutty, and perfectly sweet—this easy almond bark recipe combines creamy dark and white chocolate with whole almonds for a satisfying, homemade treat. Perfect for gifting, snacking, or even as a holiday dessert, this almond bark is as beautiful as it is delicious!


Ingredients

Scale

 

  • 1 pound dark chocolate melting wafers or chopped dark chocolate
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/4 pound white chocolate melting wafers or chopped white chocolate
  • 1 1/2 cups whole raw almonds
  • Optional: Sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate in 30-second increments, stirring between each until smooth.
  3. Stir in almond extract, then pour half of the melted dark chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread it into an even layer with a spatula.
  4. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate in 30-second increments, stirring between each until smooth.
  5. Drizzle half of the melted white chocolate over the dark chocolate layer in horizontal lines. Use a knife to drag through the lines in the opposite direction, creating a swirl pattern.
  6. Sprinkle half of the almonds over the chocolate layer.
  7. Pour the remaining dark chocolate over the almonds, spread evenly, and drizzle the remaining white chocolate, repeating the swirl pattern.
  8. Top with the remaining almonds and sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
  9. Allow the almond bark to set at room temperature for 1 hour or refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.
  10. Once set, break or cut the bark into pieces. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Notes

  • For added crunch, toast the almonds briefly before using.
  • You can also store almond bark in the freezer for up to 3 months.
