White Chocolate Bark
This candy has so much flavor and varying textures; it is not your typical “bark.”
Ingredients
- 1 pound excellent-quality white chocolate, roughly chopped
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup shelled, salted pistachios
- zest from 1 orange
- 2 ounces dark chocolate, melted for drizzling, optional
Instructions
- Place the white chocolate in a heat-proof bowl set over a pot of simmering water (a double-boiler set up).
- Stir the white chocolate occasionally until completely melted. *Alternatively, the white chocolate can be melted in the microwave on a low heat setting, stirring at 30-second intervals until melted. Be sure to use a microwave-safe bowl.
- Remove the bowl from the pot and carefully wipe the moisture from the bottom of the bowl. Place it on a heat-proof surface because it will be hot.
- Add the cranberries, pistachios, and zest. Stir well, coating all the add-ins.
- Spread the candy mixture in a quarter sheet pan (or other small flat pan/tray/platter) lined with wax paper or parchment paper. A silicone spatula works perfectly here to scrape all that wonderful mixture out of your bowl so you get every bit of it!
- Optional – drizzle the dark chocolate over the white chocolate bark.
- Allow the chocolate to set up and harden at room temperature for a couple of hours, or refrigerate for an hour.
- Using a sharp, chef's knife, chop the bark into sections for serving, as large or as small as desired.
- Keep any leftovers in an air-tight container for 1 week.
