I’m feeling very festive with the striking red and green colors of this white chocolate cranberry & pistachio bark.  An easy sweet treat of white chocolate studded with dried cranberries and pistachios. I love the contrast of the colors of the pistachios and cranberries against the creamy white chocolate. It is such an easy and fast way to create a sweet after dinner treat that satisfies those sweet cravings, but you don’t feel so guilty because it has dried fruit and nuts.    Another festive treat that has the same ingredients and also makes a lovely gift is White Chocolate Pistachio Cranberry Fudge. Pictured below. The richness of white chocolate is cut with the tartness of the dried cranberries and the roasted pistachios give a great nutty crunch. I buy the pistachios from Trader Joe’s that are already roasted, unsalted. If you cannot find pistachios already roasted, spread the nuts on a baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes at 350°F/177°C. This bark would also be a lovely homemade gift for your kids teachers or give some to the mail man to give him and energy boost on his daily rounds. Just wrap a couple of pieces up in  clear bags and tie with festive string or ribbon.
