Semi sweet chocolate bark topped with sweet dried cranberries and salted pistachios. This cranberry pistachio chocolate bark is the perfect gift for Valentine’s Day.
Hi! This is Andrea from Cooking with a Wallflower. I’m back on Ask Anna this month to share with you this amazingly simple yet delicious chocolate bark.
I think chocolate bark is one of my favorite treats. I’ve made so many different versions in the past. And this is the latest one.
The best part about this chocolate bark? It just takes 3 ingredients and 5 minutes of your time! How could anything beat that?
Topped with cranberries and pistachios, this cranberry pistachio chocolate bark is both sweet and savory and sooo perfect as a dessert. The colors are gorgeous too so it’s great for gifting. Just in time for Valentine’s Day!
Line a 9×9 baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside for now.
Break 4 ounces of chocolate into a medium sized bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave and heat it for 30 seconds. Use a spoon to mix the chocolate. Then heat the chocolate in the microwave for another 30 seconds. Use a spoon to mix. And heat in 10 second intervals until the chocolate has completely melted and appears smooth.
Pour the chocolate onto the parchment paper. Use the back of the spoon or a spatula to spread the chocolate into a thin layer. I like my chocolate bark thin because it’s easier to eat.
While the chocolate is still melted, sprinkle salted pistachios and dried cranberries on top. Gently press the pistachios and cranberries into the chocolate so that it will stick better.
Refrigerate the chocolate for at least a half hour or until the chocolate has completely solidified.
Remove the chocolate bark from the fridge and break into smaller pieces.
The cranberry pistachio chocolate bark can be served as a snack or ready for gifting!
Enjoy!
Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day!
