Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Roughly chop the almonds, pistachios, and walnuts to ensure even-sized pieces. If the dried apricots are too large, chop them into smaller bits.
Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and melt it using a double boiler or microwave. If using the microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until fully melted and smooth.
Once the chocolate is melted, pour it onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet. Spread it into an even layer about 1/4 inch thick using a spatula.
Quickly sprinkle the chopped nuts, dried cranberries, and dried apricots evenly over the melted chocolate. Press them lightly into the chocolate so they stick.
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the top for added flavor contrast.
Allow the chocolate bark to cool at room temperature until firm, about 2 hours. Alternatively, refrigerate for about 30 minutes to speed up the process.
Once fully hardened, use your hands or a sharp knife to break the bark into irregular pieces.
Store the chocolate bark in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for longer freshness.
