- 6 oz / 170 g 85% dark chocolate
- 1 tsp coconut oil (optional, for a softer shell)
- Flaky sea salt, for finishing
Almond butter filling
- ½ cup creamy almond butter (4 fl oz)
- 1 tbsp infused clarified butter, of known strength
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ⅛ tsp fine sea salt

Method
- 01
Roast the pecans
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Toss pecans with ½ tsp clarified butter and a pinch of salt. Roast for 8–10 minutes until fragrant. Let cool completely.
- 02
Melt the chocolate
Gently melt dark chocolate over a double boiler, stirring until smooth. Add coconut oil if using. Keep water and steam out of the chocolate.
- 03
Make the filling
Warm the infused clarified butter to about 100°F, just enough to make it liquid. Whisk it thoroughly into the almond butter until fully emulsified. Add vanilla, fine salt, and optional sweetener. Stir until smooth.
- 04
Build the shells
Spoon a little melted chocolate into 12 silicone muffin cups and spread it up the sides. Refrigerate for 10 minutes until set.
- 05
Fill and seal
Divide the almond butter filling evenly among the cups, leaving room at the top. Cover with the remaining melted chocolate.
- 06
Add pecan and finish
Let the chocolate set for 30–60 seconds, then press a cooled roasted pecan onto each bomb. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes until firm.
