Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup peanuts (unsalted, roasted)
- 1 cup almonds (chopped)
- 0.5 cup dried cranberries
- 0.25 cup dried shredded coconut (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
Step 2
In a large microwave-safe bowl, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
Step 3
Stir the peanuts, chopped almonds, dried cranberries, and shredded coconut (if using) into the melted chocolate until fully coated.
Step 4
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the chocolate mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Step 5
Sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt on top of each cluster while the chocolate is still warm and melted.
Step 6
Allow the clusters to set at room temperature for about 1-2 hours, or place them in the refrigerator to speed up the process (approximately 30 minutes).
Step 7
Once fully set, transfer the clusters to an airtight container. Store at room temperature for up to a week, or refrigerate for up to two weeks.
Step 8
Enjoy these easy, no-bake chocolate clusters as a snack or dessert!
