This Christmas Chocolate Bark is the easiest and delicious gift you could make for your loved ones. Last year since we were obsessed with mulled wine, I came up with this Mulled wine spice mix gift idea for our friends and family. This year we thought about something special too.
The Christmas Dark Chocolate Bark has all the flavors of home. The orange zest, cranberries, ginger, cashew nuts and of course chocolate.
This gift idea is so easy because it doesn’t necessarily require a recipe. I am suggesting my way of making it but you can add other delicious dried fruits and nuts. You can substitute cashew nuts with hazelnuts, almonds, walnuts etc. You can also substitute dried cranberries with candied ginger or candied orange. It’s your choice to have fun with it and add love to this gift.
To make this Christmas Dark Chocolate Bark I used cashews because they are perfectly combined with ground ginger and cranberries with orange zest because they are my definition of Christmas.
