Fruit & Nut Chocolate Bark

Nothing says Christmas like rich treats filled with dried fruit, nuts, and chocolate. And nothing says Christmas like a long “to do” list and a short time to do it in.

So at this time of year, we love fast and easy recipes, like this 3-ingredient chocolate bark. It ticks the chocolatey, fruity, nutty festive boxes but with no rolling, mixing, boiling, or baking.

Store it in the fridge. Chop it into chunks and you’ve got a delicious morsel to replace those Christmas truffles you don’t like rolling or the fruit mince pies that people quietly give to the dog.

It also adds a dash of flash to cakes and desserts and makes a pretty DIY gift. It’s a recipe that covers many holiday bases.
