| Prep: | 1 hr 20 min |
| Yield: | 1 pound bark |
Ingredients
- 1 pound white chocolate
- 1/2 cup chopped pistachios
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup chopped candied orange peel
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with foil, shiny-side up; smooth out the creases. Make sure all your tools are dry.
- Chop the white chocolate into 1/2-inch pieces with a large knife. Place all but 1 cup of the chopped chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds, then stir with a rubber spatula. Continue microwaving and stirring at 30-second intervals until melted, 3 to 5 minutes total. Immediately add the reserved chopped chocolate to the bowl; stir vigorously until melted and shiny. Don’t worry if there are a few small unmelted pieces.
- Pour the white chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet; use the rubber spatula to spread it into a 10-to-12-inch circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Press the pistachios, cranberries and candied orange peel into the chocolate, arranging them so each bite has a mix of flavors and textures. Let the bark harden completely at room temperature, about 1 hour. (If the room is warm, you may need to freeze the bark for a few minutes.) Break into pieces and store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 weeks.

Reviews
I adore cranberry and orange together! The sweet and the tart with the bright pop of color is perfect against a backdrop of white chocolate. The little bit of crunch and saltiness from the pistachios gives it that little extra something special. Wonderfully easy Christmas dessert that will be a favorite!
