How to Make Chocolate Almond Hay Stacks
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Place 1 cup of almond slivers on your work surface and cover with a damp towel.
- Let the almonds sit for 5 minutes to absorb moisture.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the moistened almonds and 1 cup of powdered sugar.
- Mix thoroughly until the almonds are evenly coated.
- Spread the almond mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely.
- Melt 8 ounces of your favorite chocolate in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl in 30 second increments, stirring until smooth.
- Cool the melted chocolate to 37°C (99°F), then let it cool further to 32°C (90°F).
- Add the cooled almond mixture to the melted chocolate and stir gently to combine.
- Using a teaspoon, portion out approximately 55 small mounds onto a cold baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set completely.
