Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Place the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Stir the raisins into the melted chocolate until they are well coated. If using almond slivers, stir them in at this point as well.
Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the chocolate-raisin mixture onto the prepared baking sheet to form small clusters.
If desired, sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top of each cluster for a hint of contrast and flavor.
Allow the clusters to set at room temperature for about 1 hour, or place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 20β30 minutes to speed up the process.
Once the clusters are firm, gently remove them from the parchment paper and store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
Serve and enjoy these delightful Raisin Clusters as a snack or dessert!
