Cranberry Pistachio White Chocolate Bark
Description
The recipe starts by melting white chocolate until smooth, then folding in dried cranberries and salted shelled pistachios. The mixture is spread evenly on a baking sheet and chilled in the refrigerator for about 25 minutes until fully hardened. Once set, it's broken into bite-sized bark pieces. The combination provides a sweet creamy base from white chocolate, bright tartness from cranberries, and a salty crunch from the pistachios, balancing flavors and textures. The membranous surface hardens to a firm snap, making it easy to portion.
To store, keep the bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze pieces wrapped in plastic for up to one month. Allow frozen bark to reach room temperature before serving for best texture. Lining the baking sheet with parchment paper before pouring simplifies cleanup.
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups white melting chocolate
- ¾ cup dried cranberries
- ¾ cup pistachios shelled, salted
Instructions
- Melt the white chocolate. (See notes in the post above for melting methods.)
- Stir the cranberries and pistachios into the melted white chocolate.
- Pour the candy mixture onto a baking sheet. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to evenly spread the mixture.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 25 minutes for the bark to harden and set.
- When completely cooled and set, break the bark into chunks of the desired size.
Notes
- Store the bark airtight in the refrigerator to maintain freshness for up to one week.
- For longer storage, freeze bark pieces wrapped individually and place them in a sealed container for up to one month.
- Allow frozen bark to warm to room temperature about 30 minutes before serving for optimal texture.
- Use parchment paper on the baking sheet for easier cleanup after setting the bark.
