Sweet & Salty Cocoa Almonds

We all know that when you're craving chocolate, nothing else can suffice.

Yesterday that was the case for me, so when I saw Hungry Hungry Hippie's recipe for Roasty Toasty Cocoa Almonds, I was on it.

This snack is heart healthy, antioxidant rich, and satisfies that chocolate craving. 


It's also really easy and takes a total of about 10 minutes to make.  Eight of those minutes are oven-time minutes, during which you'll be relaxing and inhaling the rich aroma of cocoa.


Here's the easy peasy recipe, straight from Hungry Hungry Hippie

Salty Cocoa Roasted Almonds
  • 2/3 cup raw almonds
  • 1 T. cocoa powder
  • 1 t. salt
  • sprinkle of stevia (to taste)
  • 1 T. water 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Put all ingredients into a bag, and SHAKE!  Shake until all the almonds are coated.


Spread the almonds out onto a baking sheet, and pop in the oven for 8 minutes.  No longer.


Remove from oven, let cool, and enjooooy the sweet and salty roasted goodness!
