1

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place white chocolate chips in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave uncovered for 2-3 minutes. Stir, and continue heating in short intervals until chocolate is smooth and glossy when you stir it.
2

Pour chocolate out onto parchment and use a large rubber spatula to spread in a thin, even layer (about 1/4 inch thick).
3

Immediately place mini pretzels over the surface of the chocolate, then sprinkle with dried cranberries and shelled pistachios.
4

In a small microwaveable bowl, microwave the dark chocolate chips uncovered on high for 1-2 minutes until almost melted. Stir until smooth and drizzle on bark.
5

Let stand about 30 minutes or until firm, or refrigerate if necessary. Break into 2-inch pieces. Store covered at room temperature.

Expert Tips

Place melted dark chocolate in a sandwich- or 1 quart-size plastic food storage bag. Seal the top and cut a small tip off one of the corners. Use like an icing bag to drizzle dark chocolate over the bark.
Parchment paper works best for this recipe, but you can also use wax paper or foil in a pinch.
