White chocolate bark

Notes

1. Roast the pistachios: To get a richer and nuttier flavour, toast the pistachios in the oven or on a pan for 5 minutes.
2. Work fast: Make sure the pistachios and cranberries are chopped and ready to go. You want to work quickly and transfer them to the top of the melted chocolate as soon as it’s ready to keep the consistency runny.
3. Add oil for a more runny consistency: For a smoother, faster pouring consistency, add 1 tablespoon coconut oil or avocado oil white melting.
