Chocolate Covered Peanuts / Crockpot Candy


If you're like my family, we love our chocolate covered peanuts.  Especially around the holidays.  You will love this recipe because everything gets thrown into a crockpot with very little hands on time!  This frees you up for some of your more time consuming cooking and baking.  

The first time I made this recipe I dropped the candy onto wax paper using a larger spoon.  I found that we enjoy these chocolate covered peanuts a little more munchable, so I do recommend using a teaspoon measuring spoon to achieve just the right size!  Note this recipe makes A LOT, you can easily half the recipe and still yield a good amount!


Crockpot Candy

2 pounds white almond bark
4 ounces German sweet chocolate bar
12 ounce bag semisweet chocolate chips
24 ounces dry roasted peanuts

Directions

Add all ingredients to slow cooker. Let cook on low for 1 hour without stirring. After an hour, stir to combine everything. Allow to cook for 1 more hour, stirring every 15 minutes.


Drop spoonfuls of the candy onto wax paper and allow to cool completely.
