Notes
- Lightly salted peanuts: The salt helps to balance out the candy. However, you can use unsalted peanuts and add a pinch or two of kosher salt instead. You could also swap out the peanuts with another type of nut like almonds or cashews.
- Vanilla almond bark: You could use white chocolate chips instead.
- Milk chocolate chips: For candy that isn't as sweet, substitute semi-sweet milk chocolate chips or dark chocolate chips.
- Peanut butter chips: Butterscotch or caramel chips would also work.
