Ingredients
- 250 grams dark chocolate , I used 50% - but feel free to use whatever you like. Higher than 60-65% is likely too strong though
- Handful of toasted almonds*
- Handful of toasted pistachios*
- Handful of dried cranberries
- Handful of raisins
Instructions
- Line a large cookie sheet with parchment or wax paper and set aside.
- In a large microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate in 30 second bursts stirring between each. Or melt using a double boiler over the stove.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the prepared cookie sheet and spread thin using a flat-edge icing knife. It should be about ⅛ to ¼ inch thick. Loosely sprinkle the almonds, pistachios, cranberries & raisins over the chocolate.
- Allow chocolate to harden. Either brake into pieces, or using a biscuit cutter, cut the chocolate into rounds.
- Store in an air-tight container at room temperature.
Notes
*If your nuts aren't already toasted, preheat the oven to 350F degrees. Place nuts on a cookie sheet and bake in oven for about 5-10 minutes until you can smell the aroma.
