Make sweet, salty, crunchy, and creamy peanut clusters using only four simple ingredients and your slow cooker. This no-bake candy is ideal for holiday trays and homemade gifts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (12 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 (12 ounce) package peanut butter chips
  • 1 (10 ounce) bag dry roasted peanuts
  • 1 (10 ounce) package almond bark or vanilla coating

Instructions

  1. Lightly grease the inside of your small slow cooker (2-quart size works best).
  2. Add the chocolate chips and peanut butter chips to the slow cooker.
  3. Set the slow cooker to low and allow the chips to melt completely, stirring every 15 minutes. This usually takes 1 to 1.5 hours. Do not let the mixture scorch.
  4. Once the chips are smooth, stir in the dry roasted peanuts until they are fully coated.
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Drop the peanut mixture by spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet to form clusters.
  7. Place the almond bark or vanilla coating in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  8. Drizzle the melted almond bark over the tops of the peanut clusters.
  9. Let the clusters set completely at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for about 1 hour until firm.
  10. Break apart any clusters that stick together before serving or storing.

Notes

  • For an extra festive look, sprinkle holiday sprinkles over the melted almond bark before it sets.
  • You can substitute pecans or a mix of nuts for some of the peanuts if you prefer.
  • Store the finished clusters in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
