Chocolate Bark

Why buy a box of expensive chocolates for the one you love, when you can make this in absolutely no time at all!  This is easy beyond words and so tasty.  I pop mine in the freezer and eat it straight from there.  You can use any nut or substitute raisins for the dried cranberries.  This is just a favorite combo of mine. 
Wrap it in a decorative box or bag and tie with a red ribbon.  Kids and adults both love this. 
Happy Love Day.....make it a chocolately one.

They look so perty on the plate...

 

Also great for Christmas.....

Chocolate Bark

1 pkg of Semi Sweet or Dark Chocolate (I used Baker's)

1 pkg of White Chocolate (I used Baker's)

1/2 cup dried cranberries

1/2 cup sliced almonds (toasted if you wish), or pistachio's

Melt both packages of chocolate separately over a double boiler following directions on the back of box (you can also place each in a stainless steel bowl placed over simmering water in a pot - melt slowly).  Place a piece of parchment paper on a large baking sheet.  Pour the darker melted chocolate on the parchment paper, following with the white chocolate.  Swirl the white into the darker chocolate.  Sprinkle over the nuts and cranberries.  Let cool.  Once it's firmed up, break it into chunks.
