Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
Place the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Roughly chop the almonds and walnuts. Add the chopped nuts and dried cranberries to the melted chocolate and stir until everything is evenly coated.
Using a spoon, scoop spoonfuls of the chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape each cluster as desired.
Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt over each cluster for added flavor.
Allow the clusters to set at room temperature for about 1-2 hours, or place them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to speed up the setting process.
Once the clusters are firm, remove them from the parchment paper and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or refrigerate for added freshness.
Enjoy these deliciously simple Chocolate Nut Craisin Clusters as a snack or dessert!
