Ingredients
- 2 cups chocolate chips
- 1 cup peanuts
- 8 oz almond bark
- Prepare Slow Cooker: Set your slow cooker to low heat. This gentle warming avoids burning the chocolate and almond bark.
- Melt Ingredients: Add the chocolate chips, peanuts, and almond bark into the slow cooker. Stir continuously until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
- Form Candies: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon the melted mixture onto the parchment in small mounds or desired shapes.
- Cool and Set: Allow the candy to cool at room temperature or place it in the refrigerator until firm, about 1 to 2 hours.
- Serve: Once set, remove the candy from the parchment and enjoy your homemade crockpot candy.
Notes
- Use a slow cooker with a ceramic insert for even heat distribution.
- Stir continuously to prevent burning and ensure a smooth texture.
- Store candy in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
- Feel free to substitute peanuts with other nuts like walnuts or cashews according to preference.
