This tasted great. It was different and I loved the dried cranberries and the crunch of the almonds.

Excellent blend of flavours! The darker chocolate and the tangy cranberries perfectly balanced the sweetness of the white chocolate. This makes a wonderful gift to bring along. Thanks for posting!<br/>Made for Went to the Market.

Another 5 star recipe Sydney Mike. Lordy, I am just going to put you into my favorites. This is divine and unbelievably simple to make. Another morsel for the holiday baskets and table. I used white chips as opposed to bark. Couldn't find it at our small market. Worked great! I also tried this with toasted walnuts and it came our chunkier looking but tasted great just the same. MArvelous. Kepp 'em coming !

I cut the recipe in half but only used maybe 1/2 ounce of the semi sweet chocolate and it was plenty for swirling. DH and I do NOT like white chocolate well until now. The toasted almonds and tangy cranberries arePERFECT for white chocolate. Definite keeper and going in my Divine recipes of 2009 cookbook. Made for Everyday is a Holiday. Thanks Syd
