Cranberry Almond Bark

• 2 cups (about 12 ounces) finely chopped bittersweet chocolate
• 3/4 cup toasted whole almonds
• 3/4 cup dried cranberries

1. Temper the dark chocolate as directed in Basic Tempered Chocolate (page 163).
2. Once the chocolate is tempered, pour the almonds and cranberries into the chocolate and stir with a rubber spatula until the nuts and fruit are completely coated.
3. Pour the chocolate mixture onto a sheet pan lined with parchment or waxed paper.
4. Spread it as thinly as possible (only as thick as one layer of almonds and cranberries).
5. Allow the bark to set at room temperature for 1 hour (or 30 minutes in the refrigerator).
6. Using a chefs knife, cut the bark into bite-size pieces, about 1 inch.
7. Serve the bark immediately, or keep it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 weeks.
