3 Ingredient Chocolate Almond Bark Recipe (V, GF): an easy recipe for thick pieces of indulgent chocolate bark packed with crunchy, roasted almonds. Vegan, Paleo, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free.
Chocolate in the morning, chocolate in the evening, chocolate all of the time!!! Can you just hear that song twinkling through your eardrums as you dream of chocolate-covered streets, a la The Simpsons?
Just me? Darn it!
There’s just these glorious wafts of melted chocolate essence floating deliciously through the air right now. And this time I know I’m not just dreaming it! (As was the case last night when I was, no joke, dreaming about my ultimate fudgy paleo vegan brownies ???? ). I had the immense pleasure of making this 3 ingredient chocolate almond bark recipe just two shakes of a lamb’s tail ago. And—well, come on, wasn’t that THE cutest expression ever??
What was I saying? Right! This 3 ingredient chocolate almond bark recipe has me in the best mood ever. Tell me, are you a fan of almonds in chocolate, or just nuts in general, in chocolate?
Some folks are seriously against it, others love the nuttiness that balances out the richness and sweetness of chocolate. Erik, for example, claims he doesn’t like nuts in his desserts, but will happily consume my homemade KIND coconut almond bars by the dozen. 😉 I personally will take chocolate any which way it comes for me. Even though that sounds mildly threatening.
Hmm…
Anyway, I’ve recently been getting into dark chocolate. You might remember me mentioning this in my easy gluten free dark chocolate muffins recipe. Erik and I are currently at the 88% mark. We might try a higher percentage soon, but for now, we’re safely seated at 88%.
Meanwhile, we’re thinking about using some 88% chocolate in these recipes: 5 Ingredient Dark Chocolate Almond & Coconut Homemade KIND Bars, Easy Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies, 5 Minute Homemade Fudge. Thoughts?
The thing about 88% is that it makes me enjoy the flavor of chocolate so much more. Or, I guess I just appreciate the deepness of the flavors. Whatever that means (I’m feelin’ highfalutin now, y’all!). And now, when I eat a piece with an almond or cacao nib, it’s like, WOAH!! I can taste the actual chocolate more than just enjoying a hit of sugar. Ya know?
So that’s my whole dissertation on why you need to make this 3 Ingredient Chocolate Almond Bark Recipe. Like right now. Not that you have to make it with dark chocolate or extra dark chocolate or anything you don’t want to do, but that you should just try it!
The flavor of chocolate and the nutty presence of almonds—and that amazing crunch… happy sigh. 🙂
The best part?
It’s made with just 3 simple ingredients. And the prep time is 5 minutes, or less! The other best part (yes, there must be more than one!!) is that this 3 ingredient chocolate almond bark recipe makes for such a great gift, just like my 3 Ingredient Chocolate Pecan Fudge. It looks so impressive and like you totally worked on it all day, while also earning your degree in professional chocolatierism.
Or something.

I’m 100% a nuts and chocolate girl. Honestly, and this feels almost shameful to admit, I don’t really like chocolate without nuts or fruit in it! And the darker the better! I might even sprinkle a few salt flakes over the top!
To each her own! 🙂 A few sprinkles of salt would be amazing on this!
One of my favourite things to snack on for a treat is nutty chocolate. This bark would totally cure my craving, looks absolutely delicious, and so easy to make! Hope you’re having an awesome week so far, Demeter! xo
Right? The nuts adds such a tasty balance to the chocolate! Thanks Marsha. 🙂 Wishing you a wonderful week! xoxo
This stuff looks perfect for my sweet tooth. I love the crunch from the almonds!
Oh yes! This bark satisfies like no other!
Yum! I love the combination of chocolate and almonds. This comes together so easily too! Definitely adding to the list.
Wonderful! Can’t wait to hear what you think!
This sounds perfect and I’m a big fan of dark chocolate. Love that this is only 3 ingredients!
The fewer ingredients, the better! 🙂
Oh this would be perfect for Easter! Love easy desserts like this!
So true!! Let all the homemade candymaking begin! 🙂
I love nuts and chocolate together! And I adore dark chocolate. I like it much better than milk chocolate. And it’s probably a good thing that more candy bars are milk chocolate and not dark chocolate or I’d be in big trouble. I love how quick, easy and gorgeous your bark recipe is! Almond bark reminds me of my best friend and I can’t wait to make your delightful recipe.
Haha, right? I’d be in the same boat if all/most bars were dark chocolate! Thank you so much for your sweet compliments! I can’t wait to hear what you think, Elaine. 🙂
One of the best snack in my book!
Most definitely!
Impressed about the 88%! Kroger just got their own brand of 72% chocolate chips and I felt uber sophisticated and healthy trying those in recipes instead of semi-sweet. Will definitely make this. Who needs a fancy chocolatier when you can make it at home so easily? I wonder how pistachios would be in this…
Nuts and chocolate are a winning combination and this is such a wonderfully easy recipe. I think I should always have a batch on hand.
They are SO good together! Having a batch on hand is super important! 😉
Can’t talk running to pantry to get ingredients to make this now : )
Haha! Can’t wait to hear your thoughts! 🙂
I’m going to have to hide this from my kids otherwise it’ll be gone in a flash!
Haha. Maybe make a double batch to share? 😉
I could snack on this all day long! The perfect 3 ingredients!
Such a yummy snack!! 🙂
Such a delicious treat! Great for an after school snack!
Thanks Jessica! 🙂
This is such an amazing treat! I can’t wait to give this a try!
Thanks Sandra! I know you’ll love it. 🙂
If I double broil chocolate do I add oil? Can it be any oil?
Yes, add the coconut oil. 😉
This looks so amazing, I love the combination of roasted almonds with chocolate, here in Spain it is a very popular sweet, such a great and easy recipe…fantastic! giving this a try for sure
Thanks Albert! The combo of chocolate and almonds cannot be beat! Can’t wait to hear what you think. 🙂
