Ingredients
  

  • 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate such as a baker’s bar
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sweetener
  • 1/2 cup espresso beans or coffee beans
  • Pinch of flake salt

Instructions
 

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Chop the chocolate into small pieces and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 30 seconds, then continue in 10 to 15 second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth.
  • Stir the powdered sweetener into the melted chocolate.
  • Add the espresso beans and coat them thoroughly.

For Individual Beans:

  • Using two forks, lift out the beans one at a time, removing excess chocolate. Place them onto the prepared sheet and sprinkle lightly with flake salt.
  • Refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until firm.

For Clusters:

  • Spread the coated beans directly on the parchment in a thin layer. Sprinkle with salt and chill for 1 hour.
  • Once set, break into bite-sized pieces and serve.
