WHITE CHOCOLATE BARK WITH PISTACHIOS AND DRIED CRANBERRIES
The original of this slightly tweaked recipe came from the food section of the Los Angeles Times, probably sometime in February 2010!, & I'm sure that RecipeZaar won't let me list the original chocolate which is 4 bars (3.5-ounces each) white chocolate (Lindt Swiss Classic). Preparation time does not include the time needed for the bark to chill & cool completely!

Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality white chocolate. This will ensure that your bark has a smooth and creamy texture.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the temperature of the chocolate by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the chocolate hardens immediately, it is ready to use.
- Be careful not to overheat the chocolate, as this can cause it to seize. If the chocolate does seize, you can try to save it by adding a small amount of vegetable oil and stirring until smooth.
- When spreading the chocolate onto the baking sheet, make sure to use a spatula that is offset. This will help you to create a thin, even layer of chocolate.
- If you want to add nuts or other toppings to your bark, do so immediately after spreading the chocolate. This will help the toppings to adhere to the chocolate.
- Allow the bark to cool completely before breaking it into pieces. This will help to prevent the bark from crumbling.
- Store the bark in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It will keep for up to 2 weeks.
