Chocolate Chunks with Cherries and Pistachios
12 ounces bittersweet Baker’s chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup shelled pistachios
- 1 cup dried tart cherries
Preparation
1. In a large microwaveable bowl, combine chocolate, milk, butter, and salt. Place bowl in microwave and heat on high for 3 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds. Remove and whisk until combined and smooth. (If chocolate is not completely melted after whisking, return to microwave for 1 minute and repeat step.)
2. Stir in pistachios and cherries. Line the bottom and sides of a 9 x 9-inch pan with plastic wrap. Pour chocolate mixture into pan, scraping bowl, and smooth out evenly. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
3. Remove pan from refrigerator and invert chocolate mixture onto a cutting board. Remove plastic and cut chocolate with a knife into desired shape and size. Serve at room temperature.
