Notes
- To blanch raw almonds, put them in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add some cold water so that you can handle the almonds. Pinch the almonds between your fingers until the skins slide off.
- Watch the almonds closely while you are roasting them in the microwave. They burn easily.
- Be careful when you melt chocolate in the microwave so that it does not burn. Check and stir after each 30 seconds or so.
- White almond bark can be stored in an air tight container at room temperature for up to a week. Or kept in the freezer for up to a month.
