Instructions

  1. Using a double boiler method, bring a small saucepan with 1-inch of water to a boil. Place a double boiler, or glass bowl, that fits on top of the saucepan over the water.
  2. Add milk chocolate, unsweetened chocolate, and coconut oil to the warmed double boiler. Stir continuously until chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove from heat.
  3. Add in peanuts and raisins, stirring until combined,
  4. Using a 1 Tablespoon scoop, drop a dollop of chocolate into the cavity of a silicone brownie mold (see notes below). Repeat until all the chocolate has been evenly divided into the mold.
  5. Allow chocolate to set at room temperature for about thirty minutes, or place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to speed set the chocolate.
  6. Once firm, pop each piece of candy out of the silicone cavity and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

  • I love using a silicone mold brownie pan, like this one on Amazon. You can also use a 9-inch square baking dish lined with parchment paper if you prefer.
  • Dark chocolate can also be substituted for milk chocolate. However the original Chunky Candy bar is a milk chocolate treat.
  • Store candy in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
  • For a twist on flavor, swap out the raisins for other dried fruits.
