Chocolate Almond Bites You Want

I am a dark chocolate lover that is for sure, and these Dark Chocolate Almond Butter Bites hit the spot every time I make them. The richness of the dark chocolate mixed with the creamy, crunchiness of the almond butter is like a dream. No doubt in my mind that these chocolate almond bites are what you want!

These bars are so easy to throw together and make the perfect decadent treat to enjoy at any time during the day. I like to keep them stored in the freezer to keep the chocolate from melting and it also gives a bite to the bars. The cold out of the freezer bites give such a nice treat to a hot summer day! These bars can also be made with a little sprinkle of sea salt to add complexity to each bite and a contrast to the dark chocolate.
