Tuxedo Chocolate Covered Almonds

Oscars week continues on the blog this week, and I am so excited to share these cute treats that I came up with that are perfect for the occasion! They were pretty easy and fun to make, and I fooled my husband and kids that I had spent hours making them… tuxedo chocolate covered almonds!

My husband bought me a HUGE container of chocolate covered almonds for Valentine’s Day, so I decided to get creative with them and make these tasty treats.

Chocolate covered almonds wearing little tuxedos would be great to serve at an Oscar’s party, a Hollywood party, prom, a wedding, or any black tie affair. I mean, who can resist chocolate in a tux?

I made a small handful of these, and then mixed them in with the rest of the regular chocolate covered almonds. Unless you have a ton of free time on your hands, I think this is the best option for serving these little cuties.

Tuxedo Chocolate Covered Almonds:

Chocolate covered almonds
White chocolate melts or bark
Dark chocolate melts or bark
Toothpick

First, melt a few of the white chocolate melts or bark according to the directions.

Use a toothpick to add the white chocolate to the almond and create a V shape coming down from the top. Repeat with as many almonds as you’d like to use.

Melt the dark chocolate, and then use another toothpick to make a tiny bow tie shape, along with two or three buttons. I found that it was easiest to make the sides of the bow first, and then connect them in the middle with a small dot.

I think I’m in love.

These little guys are just so easy and adorable, don’t you think?

Make sure to visit tomorrow to see an Oscars party I put together using amazing finds from one of my favorite stores on the planet- World Market!
