That's it!
I get to have lunch with my husband almost every single day. We like to have a cup of coffee and piece of dark chocolate afterwards. This hits the spot!
Yield: 13 (Now it's a lucky number!)
Time: 20 min. (Maybe less, If you don't have the patience to let them set up!)
Nutrition:
218 calories each
13.8 (g) of fat
24.6 (g) carbs
3.4 (g) protein
3.1 % calcium
12.3 % iron
**These are not a "low cal" "low fat" treat. But considering the benefits of dark chocolate, almonds, and cherries, they are a much better alternative for a treat than many other desserts out there.**
10 oz dark chocolate, any kind will do
Next add your almonds and cherries
Stir until combined.

10 oz dark chocolate, any kind will do
1 cup sliced almonds
1 cup dried cherries
Melt the chocolate. Microwaving is the easiest method for this. You can also melt your chocolate in a heat proof bowl over a pan of simmering water, the double boiler method.
Start with 1 minute. Take it out and stir. Then microwave for an additional 30 seconds. Stir until it's completely melted.
Next add your almonds and cherries
Stir until combined.
Line a baking sheet with wax paper and using a small 3/4 ounce ice cream scoop just drop the clusters onto the tray. The refrigerate until set. That should take about 10-15 minutes.
Then store in an airtight container in the fridge if your house is a little warm. Otherwise, they can stay out on the counter within easy reach.
These are just the perfect, small, and simple treat. Enjoy!
