Chocolate-Dipped, Raw Honey-Almond Chews
Servings: 8–12
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 4 teaspoons coconut oil, divided
- 2 tablespoons raw honey
- 2 tablespoons coconut flakes
- 1/3 cup sliced almonds
- dash salt
- dash almond extract
- 6 ounces chocolate chips
Directions:
Melt 2 teaspoons coconut oil in a medium-sized pan. Add honey, coconut flakes, almond slices, salt, and extract. Heat over medium heat for about two minutes.
Drop by teaspoonfuls (for 12) or tablespoonfuls (for 8) on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper (I added a small amount of palm shortening to ensure that the candies would not stick). Cool completely. I put mine in the fridge to speed up the process.
Meanwhile, melt the chocolate chips on low heat until just melted. Add coconut oil and continue heating just until everything is melted.
Dip cooled candies into the chocolate and place back onto parchment-lined cookie sheet. Cool completely (works well to place them in fridge) and enjoy!
