Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Place the dry roasted peanuts, white almond bark pieces, and semi-sweet chocolate chips together into the crockpot.
- Cook and Stir: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for about 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to ensure everything melts evenly and blends well.
- Mix Thoroughly: Once fully melted, stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure an even texture and consistent distribution of peanuts and chocolate.
- Form Candy Mounds: Spoon the melted candy mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, creating small mound shapes for individual candy pieces.
- Add Sprinkles (Optional): If desired, sprinkle colorful sprinkles over the candy mounds to add a festive and decorative touch.
- Cool and Set: Allow the candy to cool and harden at room temperature for at least one hour until fully set.
- Break and Serve: Once hardened, break the candy into pieces and enjoy your homemade crockpot candy treat.
Notes
- Stirring every 30 minutes during cooking is important to avoid burning and ensure smooth melting.
- The cooling time can be extended by placing the candy in the refrigerator for faster setting.
- Use parchment paper or wax paper on the baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
