Treat yourself now, or save this recipe for later, because it’s never too early to plan Christmas treats. Cranberry Cashew Bark is the perfect sweet to add to your holiday baking and candy making list. Just look at the gorgeous color of those Craisins!

Since I like to try recipes out ahead of time, I mixed up a quick batch of bark to snack on. Let me tell you… it was good. So good in fact, that the next day when I went to grab another piece I made a sad discovery: it was all gone!

Cranberry Cashew Bark is seriously delicious. It is the perfect blend of sweetness with a touch of salt and a pinch of tartness. Blended together these three tempt your taste buds and make you want to have another piece or two.

Recipes with few ingredients are at the top of my list. Why? Because that normally means they can be whipped up in no time. And with Cranberry Cashew Bark, if you’ve got a microwave, you’re ready to go.

Melt almond bark in the microwave, and then stir in cashews and Craisins.

Fantastically simple, yet elegantly presentable, Cranberry Cashew Bark is so tasty. I will be making this sweet treat time and time again, and definitely will be adding it to my list of favorite holiday sweets.
