Chocolate-peanut candies made in the slow cooker!
Author:
Serves: 20
Ingredients
  • 16 oz. salted peanuts (I used cocktail peanuts)
  • 1 (12 oz.) package semi-sweet chips
  • 1 (16 oz.) package Vanilla CandiQuik Candy Coating, broken into squares
Instructions
  1. Layer ingredients by first pouring the peanuts in the bottom of slow cooker.
  2. Layer the chocolate chips over the peanuts.
  3. Top with the Vanilla CandiQuik chunks.
  4. Place the slow cooker temperature on low and cook for 1.5 hours. Do not stir.
  5. After 1.5 hours, stir the mixture with a large spoon or spatula.
  6. Drop the candy into a lined cupcake pan, mini cupcake pan, or by the spoonful onto wax or parchment paper.
  7. Allow the candy to set completely before serving. Speed up setting by placing in the refrigerator.
Notes/Tips
Because slow cooker heats can vary, check mixture after 1 hour to make sure the candy coating is not burning. You will notice any scorching/burning by the candy coating turning a light brown color. To prevent scorching, try to prevent candy coating from resting on the sides of the slow cooker. You may start to notice a smell after about 45 minutes as the peanuts become more fragrant.
