2. Melt Chocolate Mixture: In a heavy-bottomed small saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract over low heat. Stir the mixture occasionally to prevent burning, allowing the chocolate to melt slowly and blend with the other ingredients until smooth and creamy.

3. Incorporate Raisins: Once the chocolate mixture is fully melted and combined, remove the saucepan from the heat source. Gently fold in the raisins, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture and coated with chocolate.

4. Form Clusters: Using a teaspoon, carefully drop spoonfuls of the chocolate and raisin mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Space them apart to allow for easy removal once they have set.

5. Chill: Transfer the baking sheet with the clusters to the refrigerator to cool and firm up. Let them chill for at least 1 hour, or until they are completely set and firm to the touch.

6. Serve: Once the clusters are firm, remove them from the refrigerator. Peel them off the wax paper and arrange them on a serving platter or in an airtight container for storage. These delightful raisin clusters are ready to be enjoyed as a sweet treat or shared with friends and family!
