White Toasted Almond Bark with Sea Salt
Toasted almond bark is an incredibly easy homemade candy that features deeply toasted almonds embedded in creamy white chocolate ~ the combination is unbelievable, you have to try it for yourself!
Servings: 24 servings
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup whole raw almonds, skin on
- 20 oz white chocolate, or white chocolate confectionary, chopped in small pieces. (White chocolate chips will be more difficult to melt.)
- 1 Tbsp refined coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Put the nuts on a baking sheet and toast for about 20 minutes. Give the pan a shake from time to time, and watch carefully for the last 5 minutes. You want the almonds to get darkly roasted, but not burnt. Set the pan aside to let the nuts cool on the pan.
- Line a fresh baking sheet with a silpat mat, parchment paper, or non stick foil.
- Put the white chocolate, coconut oil, and salt in a glass microwave safe bowl and heat on full power for a minute. Keep heating, checking, and stirring until the chocolate is melted. If you are using chips they won't look melted until you stir them.
- When the chocolate is completely melted and smooth, stir in the almonds and quickly spread out the mixture onto the lined baking sheet. Spread it out evenly to roughly 9 1/2 x 14 inches. (It doesn't have to be exact!)
- Let the bark harden completely before cutting. You can leave it at room temperature or refrigerate it to speed up the process.
- Break apart or slice the bark into whatever size pieces you choose.
- Try not to eat it all before you can share it with someone you love!
Notes
- If you are using actual white chocolate as opposed to white confectionary, it helps to melt it over a double boiler. Set a bowl or pan over another pan of gently simmering water and slowly melt the chocolate while stirring.
