Equipment

  • Digital Food Scale
  • Heatproof Mixing Bowl
  • Half Sheet Pan
  • Parchment Paper Sheets

Ingredients
 
 

  • 226 grams mini dark chocolate chips
  • 155 grams raisins

Instructions
 

  • Line a half sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Using a double boiler, melt the chocolate. Alternatively, you can use a heatproof bowl and microwave for 30 second intervals, stirring between each one to prevent burning. If you want to temper the chocolate you can also do that as well if you plan to gift it.
  • Add the raisins into the bowl with the melted chocolate and stir to combine completely.
  • Spoon out clusters and drop onto the parchment-lined baking sheet, you'll get about 16 clusters.
  • Allow to set completely. You can place into the fridge or freezer to speed up the setting.
  • If you don’t temper the chocolate, you may have to store in the fridge.

Notes

Tips
  • Use milk chocolate in place of dark for a more traditional treat.
  • Add flaky sea salt on top for a sweet and salty candy!
  • Add in some of your favorite nuts like almonds, walnuts, or pecans.
  • You can do this with other dried fruits like cranberries, blueberries, or even dried apricots, cherries, or ginger.
  • Drizzle the tops with white chocolate drizzle if you want a little something extra!
  • Temper the chocolate if gifting, check out more info in my post How to Temper Chocolate for Candy Making.
