Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 16 oz white chocolate (good-quality bars or chips)
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup shelled pistachios
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: Place the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Set it over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or microwave it in 20–30 second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted.
- Mix in Ingredients: Stir most of the dried cranberries and pistachios into the melted white chocolate, reserving a small handful of each to sprinkle on top for an attractive finish.
- Spread the Mixture: Pour the chocolate mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread it evenly to about a ¼-inch thickness, ensuring the top is flat and smooth.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle the reserved cranberries and pistachios evenly over the top of the bark for a decorative touch.
- Set the Bark: Allow the bark to cool completely at room temperature or place it in the refrigerator for faster setting. Once hardened, break or cut into pieces and enjoy or store for later.
Notes
- Use high-quality white chocolate for a creamy texture and rich flavor.
- Ensure the bowl and utensils are completely dry; any water can cause the chocolate to seize.
- Customize by adding other nuts or dried fruits if desired.
- Store the bark in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
- To avoid melting when handling, store in a cool place especially in warm climates.
