     Title: Chocolate Trail Mix
Categories: Nutd, Fruits, Chocolate
     Yield: 4 servings

     1 c  Raw, unsalted almonds or
          - pistachios
     1 c  Raw, unsalted cashews or
          - pecans
   1/2 c  Raw, unsalted pumpkin seeds
          - or sunflower seeds
   1/2 c  Dried cherries, raisins,
          Blueberries, goldenberries
          - or chopped dried apricots,
          - mango, pineapple or prunes
          Salt
   1/2 c  Dark or semisweet chocolate
          - pieces or chips, peanut
          - butter cups or chips

 Set the oven @ 275ºF/135ºC.

 Scatter the nuts and seeds on a large sheet pan in an
 even layer. Bake until they are lightly toasted and
 maybe browned in spots, about 12 minutes, turning the
 nuts and seeds over as best you can and rotating the
 sheet pan halfway through cooking.

 Remove from the oven, add the cherries and ¼ teaspoon
 salt and stir with a wooden spoon. Spread the mixture
 out again to let cool until you can easily handle the
 sheet pan with bare hands, 15 to 20 minutes. (If you add
 the chocolate to the sheet pan directly at this stage,
 it might melt a little. But if you prefer the chocolate
 to melt into your clusters, add half the chocolate
 directly to the sheet pan along with the dried fruit.
 After cooling, add remaining chocolate then transfer to
 a bowl, using a flat spatula to scrape any chocolate
 from the pan, and let cool until solid again, 30 to 90
 minutes.)

 Transfer to a bowl, then stir in the chocolate (if you
 haven’t already added it). Enjoy immediately, or store
 for up to one month in an airtight container at a cool
 temperature.
