These tiny hearts are so simple, obvious and delicious, you'll wonder why you hadn't thought of them.

Two almonds almost make a heart, so all you have to do is coax them together with love and chocolate.


Ingredients:
     Dark chocolate- your favorite will do.
     Almonds - raw or steam pasteurized.

Step 1: Toast your almonds

Place almonds on a baking sheet and bake at 375F.
Check after 4-5 min, then every few minutes after that.

Shake the pan once in a while for even browning
Pull them out when you see just a hint of toasty brown.
The almonds will continue to bake as they cool.

Cool your almonds.
If you want to store them before making your hearts, you can protect them from humidity in a sealed jar.
