Instructions

Line a baking sheet or tray with parchment paper.
In a microwave-safe bowl, place the chocolate chips and butter block. Place the bowl in the microwave and heat it in 20-second intervals, stirring between each interval until it’s smooth and fully melted.

Once the chocolate has melted, remove it from the microwave and set it aside.
Combine the mixed nuts and dried fruits with the melted chocolate. Mix them into the chocolate, making sure they are evenly coated.
