CRANBERRY WHITE-CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO BARK
The Berry Basket’s cranberry pistachio bark helped to calm Suzanne Cabot down after her play’s Mrs. Cratchit wound up in the hospital. But don’t wait until a stressful moment to try this delightful Christmas treat.
16 ounces white chocolate, chopped
¼ cup shelled pistachios, roughly chopped
¼ cup dried cranberries, roughly chopped
½ cup M&M’s (using only red and green candies
to give the dessert a Christmas touch)
1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a small pot, melt white chocolate at 30-second increments. Stir well to prevent scorching.
3. When white chocolate is completely melted and smooth, spread on parchment paper into a rectangular shape.
4. Sprinkle chopped pistachios, cranberries, and whole M&M’s on top. Place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set.
5. Break into pieces with your hands or a knife. Store at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
Number of servings depends on how many pieces the bark is broken into.
