Notes
Roasted almond slivers with chocolate potpourri
To satisfy the different tastes, I recommend buying different couverture (or chocolate bars). Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate are the most common. If there is a desire for a particular brand of chocolate, it is better to choose the desired chocolate bar, as not every company makes the couverture.- In the white chocolate version, raisins can be mixed with the roasted almonds. Fits very well together and tastes delicious!
- The version with dark chocolate is particularly suitable for being refined with dried cranberries.
- And the milk chocolate almond slivers are amazing even without additional ingredients!
