Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Milk chocolate chips
- 2.5 cups Roasted unsalted peanuts
- 1 teaspoon Coconut oil (optional, for smoother chocolate)
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set it aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, and coconut oil (if using).
Microwave the chocolate mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval, until completely smooth and melted. This should take about 1 to 2 minutes depending on your microwave.
Stir the roasted peanuts into the melted chocolate, ensuring that they are fully coated.
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop mounds of the chocolate-peanut mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Each cluster should be about 1 to 2 tablespoons in size.
Allow the peanut clusters to set and harden at room temperature, which will take about 1 to 2 hours. For quicker results, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Once the clusters are fully set, transfer them to an airtight container and store at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
Serve and enjoy these delightful peanut clusters as a sweet snack or gift!
