Chocolate Bark

Chocolate Bark with
Cranberries, Almonds, and Pecans

In this book, South Beach Wake-Up Call,
there are recipes at the back of the book.


One of the recipes is for chocolate bark, and since it's
almost Christmas, I decided to make it.

The doctor who wrote this book said "Just a
small bite of this delicious chocolate treat
provides important health benefits:

antioxidants in the cranberries and chocolate

and good unsaturated fats in the almonds and pecans."


You mix together 6 T chopped almonds,
6 T chopped pecans, and 6 T chopped
dried cranberries.

You then melt 9 oz of 60% bittersweet chocolate chips
(easy to find at Publix in the chocolate chip section).

Stir the nut mixture into the melted chocolate and then
smooth it all onto a foil lined baking pan.


Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
Then break into about 30 pieces.
Store in an airtight container.
Store in the fridge for up to two weeks.


This bark was delicious!
Just what the doctor ordered!

  1. Hey, since I can actually post a comment now, I'll try again and add more. I was hoping to see a new entry from you this morning, so I was delighted to find this new one about the candy the doctor ordered. (Cute) It sounds delicious, with all my favorite ingredients. A winner!!

  2. Actually, it's not really 4:50 AM. It's almost 8:00.
