Ingredients In Chocolate Covered Cashews 

Ingredients matter the most while making recipes, and that’s what brings all the thrill. What do you need while making chocolate-covered cashews? 

Cashews: Well, the hero of our recipe, although any nut can be used in such a manner, but cashews taste ravishing. I’ll recommend you use salted and roasted cashews for better flavor,  but if you have raw ones that aren’t roasted and salted, they also work well. 

Semi-sweetened Chocolate: It’s your choice which chocolate you wanna use and each type comes out different in taste. You can choose semi-sweet,  dark, or milk chocolate, whichever you like. If you like a deviant taste, then even white chocolate tastes perfect. You can buy chocolate discs, bars, or even chips as they can be melted with the double boiling method.  

Sea Salt: A little bit of salt never hurts, and I won’t even consider it optional. It tastes perfect when you add this flaky salt over the top. 

Butter: I’ll be using unsalted butter for melting chocolate and slow-cooking it with cashews; you can even use coconut oil.

For the add-ons, you can use festive sprinkles or even sprinkle crushed cashews over the top. 

Serving Suggestions 

There is no hard and fast rule to serve chocolate covered cashews; you can do it in any manner that suits you best. However, serve it chilled as the flavor gets enhanced.

• It can even be served at room temperature with some freshly cut strawberries, kiwis, and other fruits. 
• It makes a perfect holiday cookie treat; you can bring it along with chocolate chip cookies and even crookie. 
• The chocolate covered cashews can be consumed with my favorite Starbucks vanilla latte for a wholesome snack. 

Storage Tips for Chocolate Covered Cashews 

Well, regardless of your adoration, you still can’t gobble down these chocolate covered cashews at once, so you might need to store them. 

• You can store it effectively in an airtight container for a week at room temperature.  

• But if you want to prolong the storage time, keep it in the refrigerator, and it will go fine for weeks.

• Again, if you prefer to store this snack for months even, keep it in the freezer, and it will last 3 months. 

• When you want to consume, there is no need to resort to any thawing technique that involves heat; just keep it at room temperature for a few hours, and you are good to go.
