Chocolate bark always makes a welcome gift. This recipe has the added surprise of cherries, pistachios, almonds, and candied ginger, then drizzled with white chocolate.

  • Servings: 24

Ingredients:

8 oz Good Quality Semisweet Chocolate, chopped
½ cup Dried Cherries, chopped
⅓ cup Shelled Pistachios, chopped
⅓ cup Slivered Almonds
¼ cup Candied Ginger, chopped
4 oz Good Quality White Chocolate, chopped

Directions:

Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper or waxed paper. Place semisweet chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and melt at 30% power for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each melt. Pour chocolate onto cookie sheet and spread thin with a spatula. Scatter cherries, pistachios, almonds, and candied ginger evenly over the chocolate. Place white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and melt at 30% power for 30 seconds at a time, stirring between each melt. Use a spoon to drizzle the white chocolate over the fruit-and-nut-filled bark. Refrigerate the bark for about 20 minutes or until firm; break into pieces. Store bark in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.

Helpful Tips:

I make this chocolate bark for holiday gifts, but we love it so much that I also make it throughout the year as a special treat. It looks and tastes like something from a fine chocolate shop.
