Time 15m

Yield 12 clusters

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup toasted almond, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
6 ounces dark chocolate, finely chopped

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, toss together the almonds and the cherries. Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
  • Melt half the chocolate in the top of a double boiler over slightly simmering water, over the lowest possible heat, stirring frequently. Make sure the water is not touching the top pan. Remove the double boiler from the heat and stir in the rest of the chocolate. Remove the top pan with the chocolate in it, gently wipe the bottom of it and set it aside for a moment. Replace the simmering water in the bottom pan with warm tap water. Put the pan of melted chocolate on top of the warm water. This will keep the chocolate at the right temperature while you make the clusters.
  • Stir the fruit-nut mixture into the chocolate. Spoon out heaping tablespoon-sized clusters of the chocolate mixture onto the baking sheet about 1-inch apart. Put them in the refrigerator to set for 15 minutes.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 bag of fresh cranberries 12oz or so.
1 bag of semi-sweet chocolate morsels 12 oz.

Steps:

  • 1. Wash, pick off stems and toss any cranberries that aren't perfect. Dry on kitchen towel or paper towel, using another one to gently rub them around to completely dry them. Chocolate won't stick to wet berries. When berries are room temp and dry. Go to next step.
  • 2. Line 2 cookies sheets with edges with plastic wrap, not waxed paper.
  • 3. Melt chocolate completely over double boiler.
  • 4. Add dry, room temp cranberries to chocolate. Quickly toss them to cover them with chocolate. Drop by 3 covered cranberries each on cookie sheets and refrigerate or put outside in cold temp. until set up. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • 5. They taste best, stay crisp and pop when you bite them if kept cold, so unless it's the only thing you're serving and it will be eaten quickly, you'll need to either put an ice pack of some kind under the serving bowl or put the bowl inside a slightly larger bowl that has ice cubes in it.
