Ingredients

3 ounces Dark Chocolate Bar 55% for sweet treats, 70% for medium sweet, or 85% for low sugar
1 cup Roasted Nuts I used 1/3 cup of each: peanuts, cashews, almonds
1 teaspoon Coconut Oil
1 pinch Sea Salt Flakes optional

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

First, pick the chocolate you love. For very low-sugar clusters, pick 85% cocoa, or 70% for a sweeter treat. For a very sweet cluster use 55% cocoa chocolate.
In a microwave-safe glass bowl add the squares of chocolate and coconut oil.
Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each until fully melted.
Fold in the roasted nuts and use a rubber spatula to stir and coat the nuts.
Line a large sheet that fit the width of your freezer, with lightly oiled parchment paper. Set aside.
Drop a tablespoon of coated nuts on the prepared sheets and repeat, leaving some space between each cluster. I made 16 clusters.
Pop the sheet in the freezer for 10-12 minutes until the chocolate hardens and the clusters and set.
Serve with a pinch of sea salt flakes.

Notes

Note 1: Any chocolate can be used. I like high-quality degustation chocolate bars from 70% cocoa to 85% cocoa. But if you have a sweet tooth, 55% cocoa makes delicious sweet clusters.

Note 2: Any nuts can be used, but they must be roasted nuts for best flavor and crunch. Options are wild: pistachios, almonds, cashews, walnuts, pecans, or peanuts.

Note 3: Any oil can be used, like avocado oil or light olive oil.

Storage: Store the clusters in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Freeze them for up to 1 month in Ziploc bags, eat frozen or thaw for 30 minutes at room temperature before.
