Remove the bowl from the heat. Immediately add the cashews and dried cranberries to the melted chocolate. Using a spatula, fold gently until the nuts and fruit are completely coated.
4. Form the Clusters
Using two spoons or a small cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized mounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
5. Set the Clusters
Allow the clusters to set at room temperature until firm, about 1 hour. For faster setting, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15–20 minutes.
6. Serve and Store
Once fully hardened, gently peel the clusters from the parchment paper.
