Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 500 g white chocolate, chopped
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 100 g pistachios, shelled and unsalted
Instructions
- Prepare the baking tin: Line a 17 cm x 27 cm baking tin with baking paper or grease-proof paper to prevent sticking and ease removal.
- Melt the white chocolate: In a bain-marie or a heatproof bowl placed over a pan of simmering water, gently melt the chopped white chocolate until smooth and creamy. Avoid direct heat to prevent burning.
- Reserve toppings: Set aside a handful of dried cranberries and pistachios for garnishing the top later.
- Combine ingredients: Mix the remaining dried cranberries and pistachios into the melted white chocolate until evenly distributed.
- Pour and spread: Pour the chocolate mixture into the lined tin and spread it evenly with a spatula to create a flat surface. Sprinkle the reserved dried cranberries and pistachios on top for decoration.
- Refrigerate to set: Place the tin in the fridge for a few hours or overnight to allow the white chocolate to harden completely.
- Cut and serve: Once set, remove from the fridge and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cutting. This helps prevent cracking and ensures neat slices. Cut into small pieces for gifting or serving.
Notes
- This recipe is effortless and makes an excellent Christmas gift or holiday treat.
- Letting the set white chocolate come to room temperature before cutting produces cleaner slices and prevents cracking.
- Use high-quality white chocolate for the best flavor and texture.
- Feel free to substitute or add other nuts or dried fruits to personalize the recipe.
