Ina’s version of white chocolate bark is simple yet sophisticated. It features melted high-quality white chocolate spread into a thin layer and topped with a colorful, crunchy mix of dried cranberries, apricots, roasted pistachios, and cashews. Once cooled and broken into shards, it becomes a beautiful mosaic of flavors and textures.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 pound good-quality white chocolate (recommended: Lindt or Callebaut)

  • ½ cup dried cranberries

  • ½ cup dried apricots, diced

  • ½ cup roasted salted pistachios, shelled

  • ½ cup roasted salted cashews

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Sheet Pan

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Chop the dried fruits and nuts, if needed, so everything is bite-sized.

Step 2: Melt the White Chocolate

Chop the white chocolate into small, even pieces.
Using a double boiler: Place a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (not touching the water). Stir the chocolate gently until melted and smooth.
Alternatively, microwave method: Microwave in short bursts (15–20 seconds), stirring between each until smooth. Be careful not to overheat.

Step 3: Spread the Chocolate

Pour the melted white chocolate onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it into a rectangle about 9×10 inches, about ¼ inch thick.

Step 4: Add Toppings

Sprinkle the cranberries, apricots, pistachios, and cashews evenly over the surface. Press lightly with your hands or a spatula to help them stick.

Step 5: Cool and Set

Let the bark sit at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or until completely set. (You can refrigerate it for 30 minutes to speed things up.)

Step 6: Break and Serve

Once set, break the bark into pieces by hand or with a sharp knife. Serve immediately or store for later.
