Cook Time 5 minutes

Refrigerate 1 hour

Total Time 10 minutes

Servings 24 pieces

Ingredients

• 2 packages of semi-sweet chocolate squares 4 oz each lightly chopped
• 1 1/2 packages of white chocolate squares 6oz lightly chopped
• 1/3 cup peanut butter smooth
• 1/3 cup dried cranberries lightly chopped
• 1/3 cup pistachios coarsely chopped

Instructions

• In separate bowls microwave your chocolates as outlined on packaging (aprox 3 mins but check after 1 min each time). Stir the peanut butter into your white chocolate.
• Drop spoonfuls of chocolate alternately onto a baking sheet covered in wax (or parchment) paper. Lightly pull chocolate into "logs" so that it goes the length of your sheet. Swirl gently with a knife so you get the marbled look.
• It doesn't need to look perfect! It is meant to have a nice swirl pattern to it, have fun with it!
• Sprinkle with chopped nuts and cranberries and chill for 1 hour.
• Break into small pieces and keep refrigerated until ready to serve
