This White Chocolate Cranberry Almond Bark is a delicious addition to your Christmas baking, right alongside the traditional peppermint bark. It could not be simpler to make and is easy to customize with your favorite flavors and ingredients. This is my particular favorite since the dried cranberries and almonds pair amazingly with white chocolate. Add this to your Christmas platter, bag some up to pass out to friends, or keep it to yourself-no judgment here.

Today is day one of our 2nd annual 12 Days of Christmas Cookies Series!! I hope you enjoy this as much as last year’s!
