Easy Recipe to Bring to Holiday Get Togethers

I love to bring something with me when visiting for the Holiday's but with 4 kids I don't always have the time to make elaborate dishes. I'm lucky if we all make it there dressed and on time. So when I saw this recipe in Every Day with Rachael Ray - I knew that it would be a great for holiday gift giving...takes only 5 minutes to throw together and while it sets up I can get ready to go.

I love that the magazine talks about using ice cube trays as candy molds - it worked beautifully! They came out mostly uniform and really easily!

Ingredients: 

12 ounces white chocolate morsels 

1/2 cup raisins

1/2 dried cranberries

1/2 cup roasted, salted peanuts

1/2 cup roasted, salted cashew pieces

In a medium, microwaveable bowl melt chocolate, stirring once, for about 45 seconds. Stir in the raisins, cranberries and nuts.

Spoon mixture into 2 flexible ice cube trays, whacking the trays on the counter to remove any air pockets and to level out the mixture.

Refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
