Fruit and Nut Chocolate Bark is like your favorite trail mix transformed into the ultimate candy bar. Imagine swirled layers of white and dark chocolate, studded with dried fruits and crunchy nuts. It’s a beautiful and easily adaptable holiday treat that hits all the right notes.

Here’s how it comes together:

1. Layering: Start by lining a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Melt some dark chocolate and pour it onto the prepared sheet. Spread it out evenly.

2. Fruits and Nuts: Next, chop up your favorite dried fruits and nuts. Think of ingredients like dried cranberries, pistachios, pecans, and freeze-dried strawberries. Scatter these over the melted dark chocolate.

3. White Chocolate Swirl: Now, melt some white chocolate separately. Drizzle it over the fruits and nuts. Use the end of a spoon or a spatula to create beautiful swirls where the white and dark chocolates meet.

4. Setting: Let the chocolate harden at room temperature or in the refrigerator. Once it’s set, cut the bark into pieces. You’ll have a delightful assortment of sweet, salty, and crunchy bites.
