Mexican Chocolate Almonds

Had most of a bar of Brix dark chocolate (Thanks Shae!) and a big bag of raw almonds...

Almonds
Dark chocolate (70% or higher)
1 tbs vanilla
1/3 shot espresso
1 tbs cinnamon
less than 1/4 tsp cayenne
1 tsp arrowroot starch (optional)

Roast almonds on 325F for 20 minutes.  Melt chocolate and stir in other additions. You can put the almonds in and remove them to dry on parchment OR add the arrowroot starch.  This will make the chocolate denser. Mix in the almonds and press combination into a baking dish.  Refrigerate and then chop chocolate and almonds as pictured.  I think it looks fancier this way, but both ways= delicious
