Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Slice the canned jellied cranberry sauce into ½-inch thick discs using a sharp knife. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Freeze the slices for at least 30 minutes until firm to the touch.
  3. Melt dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 1-minute increments until smooth.
  4. Dip each cranberry slice into the melted chocolate using a fork, allowing excess chocolate to drip back into the bowl.
  5. Return the chocolate-coated slices to the parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for an additional 30 minutes until set.
  6. Once hardened, gently peel the bites from the parchment paper and serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
