Ingredients

▢ ½ cup sliced almonds toasted (Note 1)
▢ 1 cup milk chocolate chips (Note 2)
▢ 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
▢ ¾ cup dried cherries roughly chopped (Note 3)

Instructions

Toast the sliced almonds in a small pan on medium-low heat, stirring often, until golden, about 5-10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Place the milk and semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave the chips on high for 60-70 seconds until melted, stopping the microwave at about 30 seconds to stir. If the chips aren't fully melted after 60-70 seconds, stir them with a spatula to help melt them from the residual heat. The chocolate should be smooth and silky when ready.
Stir the toasted almonds and dried cherries into the melted chocolate until fully incorporated.
Using a spatula, pour the chocolate onto a baking sheet lined with wax paper and spread to desired thickness. Place in the refrigerator for at least one hour to set. Break or cut the chocolate into pieces. Enjoy!
