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.
Cup of Yum
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
