Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 5 cups Fritos corn chips
- 2 cups Dry roasted peanuts
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup Peanut butter chips
- 1 pound White almond bark
Instructions
Line a large baking sheet or two smaller baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats. Set aside.
Spread the Fritos corn chips evenly across the lined baking sheets or a flat surface. Sprinkle the dry roasted peanuts over the chips, spreading them out evenly. Set aside.
In the crock pot, layer the semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and the white almond bark (broken into small pieces) in that order. Do not stir.
Set the crock pot to LOW and cook for 90 minutes, allowing the chocolate to melt completely.
After 90 minutes, stir the melted chocolate mixture until it is smooth and combined well.
Carefully pour or spoon the melted chocolate mixture over the Fritos and peanuts on the baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it evenly, ensuring all chips and nuts are coated.
Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature for about 2 hours or place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes to set.
Once completely hardened, break the candy into bite-sized pieces.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
