Submitted by Sydney Mike

"This looks like a very nice chewy, crunchy, (heart healthy?) treat, a recipe I couldn't resist filing away for a future 'to-make' date!!!"

• Serves: 20

ingredients

• 12 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped

3. Add 1 cup chopped almonds to chocolate, & stir to combine.
4. Pour chocolate mixture onto prepared baking sheet, & spread with spatula or spoon until there is an even, thin layer.

Did the same but with dried cranberries and green pumpkin seeds for Thanksgiving. Very pretty, basic recipe that would work with any combo.

A nice twist with the apricots added. Made the recipe as posted. The apricots and the apricot flavor was definately a nice treat. Kids enjoyed it too. Will definately make again. Made for PRMR tag.

This is a super simple recipe and a great way to cure a chocolate fix. We didn't care for the dried apricots though. Next time we'll just make it with the almonds. Thanks for sharing the recipe. :)

What a fantastic, easy candy! The flavor combination of chocolate, toasted almonds and aricots is lovely as well as the crunchy texture. Thank you for a delicious treat!
