Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Place the dairy-free dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Add the vanilla extract to the melted chocolate and stir well to combine.
In a separate bowl, mix together the almonds, cashews, and dried cranberries.
Add the nut and fruit mixture to the melted chocolate, stirring until the mixture is evenly coated with chocolate.
Using a tablespoon, drop mounds of the chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure that each cluster is well-formed.
Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over each cluster for enhanced flavor.
Refrigerate the clusters for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set and firm.
Once set, remove the clusters from the baking sheet and store them in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for a firmer texture.
Enjoy these dairy-free chocolate clusters as a delightful snack or dessert.
