Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans or almonds (optional)
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
Instructions
- Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
- Melt the dark chocolate with the coconut oil (if using) in a double boiler or in short bursts in the microwave, stirring until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread it into an even layer, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Immediately sprinkle the dried cranberries and nuts (if using) evenly over the melted chocolate. Gently press them into the chocolate so they adhere.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator. Allow the bark to chill and fully set for at least 30 minutes.
- Once firm, break the chocolate bark into irregular pieces.
- Store the dark chocolate cranberry bark in an airtight container at cool room temperature or in the refrigerator.
Notes
