Perfect for parties or as a homemade gift, this easy crockpot candy recipe yields 50 servings and requires minimal prep.

  • Total Time: 2 hours 5 minutes
  • Yield: 50 servings

Ingredients

Chocolate and Nuts

  • 24 ounces white chocolate almond bark (broken into pieces)
  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 12 ounces chocolate bar (or chocolate bark)
  • 5 cups salted dry roasted peanuts

Optional

  • Sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot: Spray the inside of the crockpot or line it with a crockpot liner for easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare Baking Sheets: Line two baking sheets with silpat liners or wax paper and set aside for candy placement later.
  3. Add Ingredients to Crockpot: Place the white chocolate almond bark pieces on the bottom of the crockpot, then add the salted dry roasted peanuts, white and chocolate barks, and the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the top.
  4. Start Melting: Place the lid on the crockpot and set it to low heat. Let it cook for one hour to begin melting the chocolate mixture.
  5. Stir and Continue Cooking: Remove the lid and stir the mixture thoroughly to evenly coat the peanuts with the melting chocolate. If there are still solid chocolate pieces, replace the lid and continue cooking, stirring every 15 minutes until all the chocolate is fully melted and the peanuts are completely coated.
  6. Scoop the Candy: Using a cookie scoop or two tablespoons, scoop heaping tablespoons of the candy mixture onto the prepared baking sheets in individual clusters.
  7. Add Sprinkles and Set: Immediately add sprinkles if desired, then allow the candy to cool and the chocolate to fully set at room temperature.
  8. Store Properly: Once fully set, store the candy in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent melting.
