Easy Peanut Clusters Recipe

Crock Pot Peanut Clusters only have 4 ingredients and make the BEST chocolate covered peanut candy I’ve ever eaten!

This easy chocolate peanut cluster recipe calls for 3 kinds of chocolate that melt in a crock pot. Stir in peanuts, drop on wax paper and a homemade holiday candy is ready to share!

Prep Time: 5mins

Cook Time: 1hr 30mins

Total Time: 1hr 35mins

Servings: 60 candies

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 pounds white almond bark
  • 4 ounces Baker’s German Chocolate Bar
  • 12 ounces Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 24 ounces Dry roasted peanuts

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Place crock pot liner in crock.
  2. Add almond bark to crock in as even of a layer as possible. Sprinkle additional chocolate evenly on top.
  3. Finally, add peanuts in an even layer.
  4. Turn on high for 45 minutes to 1 hour and do not stir.
  5. Turn down to low. Stir every 15 minutes until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
  6. Drop by spoonful onto wax paper and cool.

NOTES:

  • Chocolate melts in about 45 minutes on high and about an hour on low in my crock pot, but appliances will vary so keep a close eye on the clusters the first time trying this recipe.
  • Use a slow cooker liner to make clean-up a breeze!
  • Break chunks of almond bark into 2 to 4 pieces and spread pieces as evenly as possible in the crock. Stacking is acceptable if necessary.
  • Spread other chocolate out evenly across crock pot
  • Use a scoop to create a more uniform shape if that’s important to you
  • Will take 2-3 hours to set-up
  • Don’t plan to move wax paper until candy is set up
  • I like to line cookie sheets with wax paper, so I can move them if needed
