Categories     dessert

Time 2h25m

Yield 16 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup whole shelled salted pistachios
16 ounces good white chocolate, finely chopped
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup medium-diced dried apricots

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using a pencil, draw an 8-by-10-inch rectangle on a piece of parchment paper. Turn the parchment paper over so the pencil mark doesn't get onto the chocolate and place it on a sheet pan.
  • Place the pistachios in one layer on another sheet pan and bake for 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Place three quarters of the white chocolate in a heat-proof glass bowl and put it in the microwave on high for 30 seconds. (Time it with your watch for accuracy.) Stir the chocolate with a rubber spatula, return it to the microwave for another 30 seconds, then stir again. Continue to heat and stir in 30-second intervals until the chocolate is just melted. Immediately stir in the remaining chocolate and allow it to sit at room temperature, stirring often, until it's completely smooth. (If you need to heat it a little more, place it in the microwave for another 15 seconds.)
  • Pour the melted chocolate onto the parchment paper and spread it lightly to fill the drawn rectangle. Sprinkle the top evenly with the cooled pistachios, the cranberries, and apricots. Press the nuts and fruit lightly so they will set in the chocolate. Set aside for at least 2 hours until firm or refrigerate for 20 minutes. Cut or break the bark in 16 pieces and serve at room temperature.

1/4 cup medium-diced apricots

Steps:

Put it back in the microwave for another 30 seconds and stir again. Continue to heat and stir every 30 seconds until the chocolate is just melted. Immediately, add the remaining chocolate and allow it to sit at room temperature, stirring often, until it's completely smooth. (If you need to heat it a little more, place it in the microwave for another 15 seconds at a time.)
  • Pour the melted chocolate onto the parchment paper and spread it lightly into the drawn rectangle. Sprinkle the top evenly with the cooled walnuts, the cranberries and apricots. Set aside for at least 2 hours until firm, or refrigerate for 20 minutes. Cut the bark in 16 pieces and serve at room temperature.

Tips:

  • To achieve a smooth and creamy texture, make sure to use high-quality white and dark chocolate.
  • For a stronger chocolate flavor, use bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
  • 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 prevent the chocolate from seizing, avoid adding any moisture to it. This means making sure that all of your ingredients are completely dry before you start.
  • If you want to add extra flavor to your dogwood bark, you can try adding in chopped nuts, dried fruit, or crushed peppermint candies.

Conclusion:

White and dark chocolate dogwood bark is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its combination of sweet and bitter flavors, this candy is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed.
