Ingredients

    Coconut Oil, 1 teaspoon
    Lindt Excellence 85 percent cocoa bar, chopped 85 grams
    Almonds, dry roasted, 2.5 cup whole kernels

Directions

Place the chopped chocolate in a small microwaveable bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between intervals, until chocolate is almost completely smooth and melted. Stopping before chocolate is completely melted ensures chocolate will not burn. Stir chocolate until completely smooth. Set aside.

Add almonds to the bowl of a food processor. Process until nuts are finely ground. Continue processing until the ground almonds come together and turn into a peanut butter-like consistency, or the nuts clump together in a ball in the processor, about 5 minutes. If the nuts are still powdery, keep processing. Pour melted chocolate over ground almonds and pulse until combined. If the chocolate almond butter is too dry, add the coconut oil and process to combine.
