“These delicious snacks make wonderful gifts, and although they look and taste like they came from an expensive chocolate shop, they couldn't be more guilt-free. The dried fruit and nuts are heart-healthy and full of fiber. Bet you can't eat just one!” Alina Niemi - Honolulu, Hawaii

Made this today with dark chocolate chips a prepackaged mix of dried cranberries, dried cherries, almonds walnuts and dry-roasted pistachios (what I already had on hand). It was awesome. I'm anxious to try the original recipe as well as other combinations. I made mine a tad bigger so I only got 36 pieces, but maybe with the bigger pieces we can stop with one. ;-) Not likely.

These were very good but just a little to much chocolate. I love chocolate but this was just over the top. How could we cut back the chocolate?

I read the ingredients-I will make it real soon with a few adjustments, as I like to improvise. It does ask for 2 cups semi-sweet choc., however, that would be 16 oz. as 1 cup is 8 oz. I would probably use the dark choc, toast the coconut, and use a little less dried fruit. I cannot wait to try it-sounds scrumptious!

Next time I would use milk chocolate instead of semi- sweet.

Excellent! And simple to make. I left out the coconut--just personal preference.
