Ingredients

1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 tablespoon honey
100 g flaked almonds
80 g dark chocolate

Instructions

Melt the coconut oil and honey together over a low heat.
Add the flaked almonds, and gently stir constantly for 5-10 minutes until the almonds are golden brown. Take care as they will burn easily.
Place 8 spoonfuls of the mixture onto greaseproof paper or a silicone sheet. Shape into flattened circles whilst warm, pushing the mixture together with your fingers. Place in the fridge to cool.
Melt the chocolate in a basin set over a saucepan of boiling water. When it's nearly melted, remove from the heat. Spread the melted chocolate over the base of each of the florentine biscuit. Chill in the fridge, then enjoy.

Notes

For dairy free florentines, use a dairy free chocolate. For vegan florentines, switch the honey for maple syrup too.
