Crockpot candy is one of those classic recipes that I look forward to making every year. It is incredibly simple because you just let the slow cooker do all the heavy lifting while you take care of other things in the kitchen.

My best tip for this recipe is to use a slow cooker liner if you have one. It makes the cleanup process much faster since the melted chocolate can get a bit messy, and you will save yourself a lot of scrubbing time at the end.

🧺 Ingredients

24 ounces semi sweet chocolate chips
12 ounces peanut butter chips
16 ounces salted roasted peanuts
16 ounces unsalted dry roasted peanuts

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Place the semi sweet chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, salted peanuts, and unsalted peanuts into your slow cooker.
2
Cover the slow cooker and cook on the low setting for one hour without stirring.
3
After one hour, remove the lid and stir the mixture until everything is smooth and fully combined.
4
Turn the heat down to the keep warm setting or turn the slow cooker off.
5
Use a large spoon to scoop small clusters of the mixture onto parchment paper or wax paper.
6
Allow the clusters to sit at room temperature until they are completely firm before serving.

💡 Tips

Store these candies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. If you live in a warm house, you can keep them in the refrigerator to make sure they stay firm. These also make wonderful gifts when packaged in little tins or clear treat bags tied with a ribbon.
