Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 150 grams dry roasted peanuts (unsalted)
- 100 grams raisins
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter.
Microwave the mixture in 20-second increments, stirring well after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth (this should take about 1-2 minutes).
Add the dry roasted peanuts and raisins to the melted chocolate mixture, folding gently until they are evenly coated.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them an inch apart to ensure they don’t stick together.
If desired, sprinkle a small pinch of sea salt on top of each cluster for a hint of extra flavor.
Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, or until the clusters are fully set and firm.
Once set, remove the clusters from the refrigerator and transfer them into an airtight container for storage.
Store at room temperature for up to 1 week, or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy as a treat or share them as a thoughtful gift!
