Ingredients

  • 4 ounces (113g) German sweet chocolate chopped into small pieces
  • 2 pounds (907g) white almond bark chopped into small pieces. Might be labeled as white candy coating.
  • 8 ounces (226g) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 4 ounces (113g) white chocolate chips
  • 2 pounds (907g) roasted salted peanuts
  • holiday sprinkles to your taste

Instructions

  • Lightly spray the crockpot insert and add in all the ingredients.
  • Cover and cook on low for 1-2 hours. After the first hour, stir the mixture every 20 minutes.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the candy mix onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat, stopping after every 6 or so to add Christmas sprinkles.
  • Allow candy to set for at least one hour in a cool place - preferably a refrigerator - until set.
  • Serve immediately, or store the candy inside an airtight container in a cool area.

Notes

  • For the best tasting candy, use good quality chocolate.
  • You need to keep the mixture warm when scooping, so leave the crockpot on during this process.
  • To make scooping easier and ensure the clusters are the same size, I like to use a small cookie scoop.
  • Make sure to add the sprinkles while the chocolate is still warm and soft so they will adhere. Set out about 6 candy clusters at a time, then add sprinkles before scooping out the next 6 clusters, and then keep repeating.
  • If you prefer, you can scoop the candy clusters into cupcake liners instead of directly on the baking sheets.
  • You can easily double this recipe to serve a crowd or to make edible gifts. Just make sure your crockpot is large enough for all the ingredients.
  • Storage - Keep your Crock pot candy fresh by storing it inside an airtight container in a cool area for up to 2 weeks
