Ingredients

  • 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 2 cups peanut butter chips
  • 20 ounces white melting chocolate wafers or almond bark
  • 4 cups salted peanuts or do half plain and half salted

Instructions

  • Start by placing your peanuts in the bottom of the crockpot.
  • Now sprinkle your milk chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips and peanut butter chips on top of the nuts.
  • Now add part of the white melting wafers on top. You will add the rest later.
  • Place lid on your crockpot and turn to low and let it cook for 1-2 hours. Every 15 minutes you will stir.
  • After the first 15 minutes give the nut clusters a good stir, and then add the remaining white wafter chocolate on top. Return lid and continue to cook.
  • You will cook the peanut clusters until all the chocolate is fully melted. Once it is fully melted you will spoon out your nut clusters onto wax paper.
  • Let your peanut nut clusters harden up and then serve for any occasion. These crockpot chocolate nut clusters are so easy to make.

Notes

  • If you want to make for the holidays, add colored sprinkles onto the wet chocolate once you scoop them out onto wax paper.
  • I also found crockpots will heat differently so it might take you 2 hours to get all the chocolate melted and others only need 30 minutes to an hour. Either way is find, you just want the chocolate fully melted before you scoop out clusters on wax paper.
  • Store in an airtight container on the counter or in the fridge. You can also freeze the peanut clusters for 3-4 months. Or vacuum seal in the freezer for extended shelf life.
