Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces Dry roasted peanuts
- 16 ounces Salted peanuts
- 12 ounces Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 12 ounces Milk chocolate chips
- 16 ounces White almond bark
- 8 ounces Baking chocolate squares
Instructions
Prepare a clean crock pot by setting it to the 'LOW' setting.
Layer ingredients in the crock pot in the following order: dry roasted peanuts, salted peanuts, semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, white almond bark (broken into smaller pieces if needed), and baking chocolate squares.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 1 hour without stirring.
After 1 hour, remove the lid and gently stir the mixture to combine the melting chocolates and peanuts.
Replace the lid and continue cooking on LOW for an additional 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to prevent burning and ensure even melting.
Once the mixture is fully melted and smooth, turn off the crock pot and carefully spoon the candy mixture onto parchment paper or wax paper-lined baking sheets. Use a tablespoon or small cookie scoop to create individual clusters.
Let the candy cool and harden at room temperature for 1-2 hours or until completely set.
Store the candies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or refrigerate for longer shelf-life.
