Valentine's Chocolate Almond

This lovely chocolate almond was made before the pineapple tarts for Valentine's Day.

Ingredients:

500g Almond silvered

80g Icing sugar

60g Water

400g Cooking chocolate, chop into pieces and melt

Methods:

In a large bowl, mix all ingredients together except cooking chocolate and spread evenly on a lined baking tray. Bake at preheated oven 180C for 20 mins. Take out tray and make a good stir and put in oven for 5 mins and take out again, another stir and put in oven for final 5 mins. (this will makes the more almond crispy)

**must monitor the almond for the last 5 mins, do not let the almond get burnt otherwise it will get bitter taste** Cool down the baked almond and break in pieces.

Melt the cooking chocolate in double boiler. In another bowl put some baked almond and melted chocolate together and mix well by using a fork and spoon. Scoop a small amount of chocolate almond on a aluminium foil and put in fridge for about 5 mins to set and store in airtight container.
