Double Chocolate Cranberry Almond Bark

This is one of my favorite versions of chocolate bark to make around the holidays. It is festive in color and also has the great combination of sweet and salty!  I also love how pretty it is to give as gifts!
Christmas Candies

This is a super easy candy to make and is perfect for those last minute gifts for coworkers, hostess gifts at a party, etc.


Jan's Tip: For the chocolate: you can either use chocolate chips or feel free to grab those candy melt trays you see at the holidays for dipping candies. They are perfect for this too!
