Line an 8x8-inch baking dish or a similar-sized tray with parchment paper. Set aside.
Chop the dark chocolate into small pieces if itβs not already in chips or chunks.
Melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring frequently until smooth and fully melted.
Once melted, remove the chocolate from heat and allow it to cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Stir in the dried cranberries and chopped nuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the chocolate.
Pour the chocolate mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt and unsweetened shredded coconut (if using) over the top of the chocolate.
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour, or until fully set.
Once set, remove the chocolate from the dish and peel off the parchment paper.
Cut the chocolate into bite-sized chunks using a sharp knife.
Store the Chocolate Cranberry Chunks in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy!
