Notes

Use high-quality ingredients: To get the most delicious snack possible, it's important to use high-quality chocolate (with a high cocoa content and minimal additives) and fresh, good quality nuts.
Melt chocolate carefully: When melting the chocolate, do it slowly and carefully to avoid burning or scorching it. Use a double boiler or a microwave to melt the chocolate, and stir it frequently to ensure it melts evenly.
Let excess chocolate drip off: This will prevent the chocolate from pooling and creating a messy appearance.
I don’t have a microwave; how can I melt the chocolate? Using the double boiler method: see FAQs above.
