Ingredients
Instructions
-
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
-
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and milk chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
-
Stir in the vanilla extract into the melted chocolate mixture until well combined.
-
Gently fold in the mixed nuts, ensuring they are evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
-
Using a spoon, drop clusters of the chocolate-nut mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming small mounds.
-
While the clusters are still wet, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on top of each cluster for a delightful contrast of flavors.
-
Allow the clusters to set at room temperature until the chocolate hardens, or for a quicker setting, place them in the refrigerator for about 20-30 minutes.
-
Once the chocolate nut clusters have hardened, transfer them to an airtight container for storage or display them on a serving plate for a sweet and crunchy treat.
