Ingredients
- 12 oz white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate
- 1/2 cup pistachios, shelled and roughly chopped
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 tsp sea salt (optional)
Instructions
- Melt the Chocolate: In a heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
- Prepare the Bark Base: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
- Pour the Melted White Chocolate: Pour the melted white chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet, then use a spatula to spread it evenly into a smooth layer.
- Add Toppings: Immediately sprinkle the chopped pistachios and dried cranberries evenly over the melted white chocolate. Press gently to ensure they adhere well.
- Chill the Bark: Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and chill for 1 to 2 hours, or until the chocolate has completely set and hardened.
- Break Into Pieces: Once set, remove from the refrigerator and break the bark into irregular, bite-sized pieces.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the pistachio cranberry bark chilled or at room temperature as a sweet, crunchy treat for any occasion.
Notes
- You can substitute white chocolate chips with high-quality chopped white chocolate for better texture.
- For varying flavor, try adding sea salt for a touch of savory contrast.
- Store the bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
- Feel free to add other nuts or dried fruits to customize your bark.
