Chocolate Nut Craisin Clusters

This is such an easy recipe for a great tasting candy. I originally saw it in the quick cooking magazine. I rarely make less than a double recipe and they are always eaten up. These are also great to give away at holiday time or bring to a party. Experiment with flavored chocolates and fruit and nut combinations for something different. Cook time is refrigerator time.

Steps

Melt chocolate chips in microwave for about 2 minutes.
Chips will not appear melted.
However , stir them to distribute the heat and get them melted.
Add nuts and craisins , stirring until well coated.
Drop teaspoonfuls onto a wax-paper lined cookie sheet.
Place into refrigerator for about 1 hour.
Check chips at about 2 1 / 2 minutes and add small amounts of time until chips are melted.
It takes a bit under 3 minutes for a double recipe in my microwave.
