White Chocolate Holiday Bark


This easy candy came from the Food Network Channel, so you know it must be good. It has the sweet and salty taste embedded with the smooth white chocolate. I added a few roasted peanuts to mine because I didn't have enough pistachios. 

Ingredients:
1 pound finely chopped white chocolate
1 1/2 tsp. nut or plain oil
1/2 cup cranberries
1 1/4 cups shelled pistachio nuts, toasted and papery coating peeled

Directions:
Melt the chocolate in a double boiler, simmering the water on a low heat.  You can use a candy thermometer to keep a check on it; it should read between 82 to 86 degrees.  Once melted, stir in the oil, cranberries, and nuts.  Spread wax or parchment paper on a cookie sheet. Pour the mixture on it the cookie sheet and refrigerate until the mixture hardens. Break into pieces.
