Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Melt the chocolate mixture over a double boiler or in the microwave, heating in 30-second intervals and stirring in between, until fully melted and smooth.
Stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the melted chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it out evenly to about 1/4 inch thick using a spatula.
Sprinkle the raw almonds, pumpkin seeds, and dried cranberries evenly over the top.
Lightly press the toppings into the chocolate to ensure they stick.
Finish with a sprinkle of flaked sea salt over the chocolate bark.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 1 hour or until the chocolate is completely set and firm.
Once set, break the chocolate bark into pieces of your desired size.
Store the chocolate bark in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to two weeks.
