Slow cooker chocolate and peanut candy
MAKES 60-65 PIECES
1 4-ounce box Baker’s German’s Sweet Chocolate
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
48 ounces almond bark chocolate baking bar
1 16-ounce jar dry-roasted, unsalted peanuts
1 16-ounce jar roasted, salted peanuts
Chop all chocolate and place into a slow cooker. Pour peanuts over chocolate. Cover and cook on low setting. Allow mixture to cook without interruption for 3 hours (avoid opening the lid or stirring). After three hours, turn off slow cooker, remove lid and stir contents for 4 or 5 minutes or until completely blended. Line several cookie sheets with waxed paper. Using a soup spoon, dip into candy and drop spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Stir mixture in the cooker several times while dipping out the candy. Once cooled, candy is ready to be eaten (no need to refrigerate).
