Description
Chocolate Peanut Clusters are one of the easiest and most delicious candy recipes I have made. You only need three ingredients: dark chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and salted peanuts. You can make them in the microwave or crockpot, and they're perfect for Christmas gifts, parties, candy trays, and more!
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 (10 oz.) bag of peanut butter chips
- 1 (12 oz.) bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips (or dark or milk chocolate chips)
- 3 cups of salted cocktail peanuts
Instructions
- Start by pouring all the chips into a microwaveable glass bowl and mix them up. Microwave for one minute. Then stir. For me, one minute is enough, but if they're still not melted enough to be smooth, microwave them for another 30 seconds to one minute until they're all yummy melted.
- Then pour in 3 cups of salted peanuts and stir again until they're all well coated.
- Line some large cookie sheets with parchment or wax paper (I prefer wax paper). Then dip out the candy by the spoonful onto your cookie sheets.
- Let the candy sit at room temperature and harden (takes 30ish minutes, depending on the temperature and humidity in your house) or you can pop the sheets in the frig for 10 minutes and they're done!
