Pistachio Cranberry Bark Recipe
Yields about 1 lb of bark
1 lb. white chocolate
½ cup shelled pistachios
½ cup dried cranberries
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Melt white chocolate over a double boiler (or in 30-second intervals in the microwave on 50% power, stirring after each). Once the chocolate is melted, remove from the heat and let sit for a few minutes to cool slightly, stirring occasionally. Add pistachios and cranberries and stir to combine.
- Spread the chocolate mixture onto the prepared pan in an even layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until set.
- Using a sharp knife, cut the bark into pieces. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
