Paleo Chocolate Dipped Almonds
Crunchy almonds meet luscious dark chocolate in this guilt-free, Paleo, and vegan snack made for queens who snack smart.
Ingredients

Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper like the domestic goddess you are.

- Use a fork to lift each almond and place them individually on the baking sheet.
- Sprinkle with sea salt while still melty, because salty-sweet is a love language.
- Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes or until the chocolate sets and your self-control is gone.
