I am not usually the type of gal that likes nuts and other things in my chocolate, but this boy oh boy is this good, and it makes a perfect gift, or easy fun treat to bring to your next holiday party.
Ingredients:
Dark chocolate chips
Chopped pistachios
Dried cranberries
Coconut flakes
Sea salt (optional)
Directions:
- Shuck pistachios from shells, and chop nuts (lightly) in a food processor. If you don't have a food chopper... try sticking them in a sealed Ziploc bag and roll with a rolling pin, or mash with mallet until crushed.
- Chop or cut cranberries into smaller pieces too.
- Melt chocolate chips ( I added a little coconut oil to the pan to prevent burning the chocolate) - you can also use a double boiler.
- Cover cookie sheets with wax paper.
- Pour melted chocolate onto wax paper, and spread it evenly and thinly - about 1/8 inch thick.
- OPTIONAL : Grind a little Celtic sea salt or Himalayan salt on top. (salt and chocolate is actually really good)
- Sprinkle pistachios, cranberries, and coconut over the chocolate.
- Place cookie sheet in refrigerator to harden.
- Once the chocolate has hardened you can cut or break into pieces.
Enjoy!!!!
