Coconut Almond Chocolate Clusters

There is nothing I love more than coconut and chocolate, so desserts with either of these or even both are something that I can't resist! I know everyone is probably thinking of buying Easter candy right now, but instead of buying that bad for you store bought candy - make these Coconut Almond Clusters instead! They are literally so easy and have just three ingredients - milk chocolate, coconut and almonds. 

Coconut Almond Chocolate Clusters

Makes 24

283 grams (2 cups) chopped organic milk chocolate

142 grams (1 2/3 cups) organic fine shredded unsweetened coconut

In a double boiler, melt 226 grams (2 1/2 cups) of the milk chocolate until it reaches 110°F on a chocolate thermometer. Remove from heat.
