Cocoa-Coated Almonds *

Long ago I used to love the Emerald Cocoa Roasted Almonds, but cannot eat them anymore as they are not soaked and they contain Splenda (sucralose). I experimented a little and came up with this recipe that uses raw almonds (that are soaked & dried) and stevia powder to sweeten. So they are healing diet approved, meaning you can have them even if you are on a sugar restricted diet (which most of us should try to avoid sugar anyway). These cocoa almonds are so delicious and good for you and make an excellent snack, or addition to homemade trail mix.
