Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams semisweet chocolate chips
- 100 grams dried cranberries
- 100 grams chopped almonds or pecans
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semisweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval, until smooth and fully melted. Alternatively, melt the chocolate using a double boiler on the stovetop.
Once the chocolate is melted, stir in the dried cranberries and chopped nuts until evenly coated.
Using a tablespoon or small scoop, drop spoonfuls of the chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Each cluster should roughly be the size of a walnut.
Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top of each cluster for added flavor.
Allow the clusters to set at room temperature for 1-2 hours, or speed up the process by placing them in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes until firm.
Once fully set, transfer the cranberry chocolate clusters to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to a week or in the refrigerator for extra freshness.
Serve and enjoy your homemade Cranberry Chocolate Clusters!
