Carrageenan Free Dark Chocolate-Covered Almonds

Rich, snappy dark chocolate wrapped around a whole roasted almond is one of those combinations that never gets old — and making it yourself means you actually know what's in it. Store-bought chocolate-covered nuts are a minefield for anyone avoiding carrageenan, since that additive turns up in commercial chocolates and coatings with frustrating regularity. Here, you're working with just three ingredients: raw almonds, a high-cacao dark chocolate you've chosen yourself, and a pinch of flaky sea salt. The double-boiler method keeps the chocolate silky and glossy without scorching it, and the whole process is genuinely low-effort. A fork does the heavy lifting for coating, and a scatter of sea salt right before the chocolate sets gives every piece that perfect sweet-salty finish. Once they're set — either at room temperature or a quick stint in the fridge — you've got a snack that looks like it came from a fancy confectionery. Keep a batch on hand and you'll find yourself reaching for these instead of anything from a bag.
