This is a wonderful addition to any Christmas cookie plate. I love cranberries and white chocolate so I mixed these up using a friends recipe for the more traditional haystack recipe with regular chocolate.

Categories     dessert

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

12 ounces good-quality white chocolate, finely chopped
1/3 cup roasted salted shelled pistachios
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
  • Put 9 ounces of the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each, until just melted. Stir in the remaining 3 ounces chocolate and let stand 3 minutes. Stir until completely smooth. If there are still some lumps, microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring well after each, to melt any remaining chocolate, but take care not to heat more than necessary.
  • Pour the chocolate onto the parchment and gently spread to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Sprinkle the pistachios and cranberries on top, pressing very lightly so they adhere. Sprinkle with the flaky salt.
  • Refrigerate until set, about 20 minutes. Break into pieces and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

HAYSTACKS

I have made these cookies for my family for about 30 years now. My son (who is now 36 years old) gets so excited when I make these; he always enjoys them with a tall glass of milk. I find that I have to be careful when melting the butterscotch because it seems to scorch easily, so take care - this is an essential ingredient! Also, these are best enjoyed in the winter because they seem to melt and not taste as great in the warmer weather.
