Chocolate Cranberry Nut Candy #SundaySupper

November 30, 2014 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 45 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Today for #SundaySupper we had to make gifts from the kitchen.  I have been looking so forward to today’s posts.  I can’t wait to see what creative gifts everyone has come up with.  I think one of the best gifts you can give people are gifts from the kitchen.  Nothing like homemade goodies to share with friends and family.  For my gift to give I made Chocolate Cranberry Nut Candy.  Oh my gosh, amazing to eat!
Chocolate Cranberry Nut Candy #SundaySupper
These little chocolaty candies are sweet and savory and takes like 10 minutes to make total time. Makes for a quick gift in a pinch. The chocolate mixed with the salted, honey roasted peanuts is a combo to love. Plus you get a nice tart chew from the dried cranberries. I think this is a gift anyone who loves chocolate would like to receive. The only problem is actually giving them away. I think I ate 3 of them while taking the pictures, plus I’m thinking about them right now and I want one.
Chocolate Cranberry Nut Candy #SundaySupper
To make them I microwaved dark chocolate wafers and quickly mixed in my cranberries and nuts. With a cookie scoop, I just scooped them out and added to my pan to cool. This really couldn’t get more simple. I am serious, this took less than 10 minutes to make. It’s kind of scary knowing how simple they are to make.

Rich dark chocolate candy filled with salted peanuts and dried cranberries.
Recipe type: Candy
Serves: 22
Ingredients
  • 12 oz dark chocolate melting wafers (I used Ghirardelli Chocolate)
  • 1 cup nuts (I used salted honey roasted peanuts)
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
Instructions
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set a side.
  2. In a microwave safe bowl, add chocolate. Melt in microwave for 30 seconds, stir, place back in microwave and cook for 30 more seconds, stir. Cook for 15 second intervals, stirring in between each interval until chocolate is melted. Stir in nuts and cranberries.
  3. With a cookie scoop, scoop out candy and place on prepared baking sheet. Let cool completely.
Notes
I made my candies pretty big in size, but you can totally make them smaller.

Chocolate Cranberry Nut Candy #SundaySupper
Since I made my candies so big, they fit great in a standard size cupcake liner, but you can make them smaller in size, so you get more candies than 22. They would be pretty packed up in a white box or a pretty cookie tin or even a mason jar with a red ribbon around it.

I hope you have a great Sunday.

Toodles,

Jennifer

    Goooood idea! I love these little nutty and sweet clusters, so I don’t know why I’ve never made them at home before (unless it’s to keep from eating them all at once during photographing sessions too–oops). Great share–have a wonderful week!

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.
🌻
My beautiful “Summer” cutout sign is from @krumpetshomedecor and it’s also the deal of the week. You get an extra 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link is in my bio.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
