White Chocolate Cranberry Holiday Bark

Looking for a new recipe so you can be the talk of your next holiday party? How about making this delicious White Chocolate Cranberry Holiday Bark!

Prep: 15 minutes; Chill: 30 minutes

Sweet and crunchy, every bite of this festive candy is loaded with heart-healthy dried cranberries and antioxidant-rich almonds. Using unsweetened coconut instead of sweetened versions saves a few calories while adding delicious flavor and an extra bit of fiber. Try replacing the cranberries with dried cherries—which are high in beta-carotene and help protect against heart disease—for a tasty variation your guests will love.  We hope that you enjoy the White Chocolate Cranberry Holiday Bark.
