Preheat oven to 300 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, spread the almonds evenly across the pan and roast them for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
-
2
When done remove them from the oven and set aside.

3
In a microwave safe bowl, add chocolate and microwave it in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, and continuing until chocolate is melted.

This took me one minute.
-
5
Be careful not to burn the chocolate.
-
6
You could also melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler.
-
7
Add almonds into the melted chocolate and mix until all the almonds are coated in chocolate.
-
8
In a medium bowl add cocoa powder.
-
9
Add a handful of the chocolate covered almonds at a time.
-
10
Mix until all of the almonds are covered in cocoa powder.
-
11
Shake off the excess cocoa powder.
-
12
I did this by picking up the almonds and bouncing them from my one hand to the other, then placing them back onto parchment paper.
-
13
Do the same to remaining almonds.
-
14
Please note: do not cover all of the almonds with the cocoa powder at the same time, or you will end up with a big chocolate mess.
-
15
Youll need to do this in batches.
-
16
(Trust me!)
-
17
Let the chocolate set up.

Then store the chocolate covered almonds in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month.
