I have seen several recipes for crockpot chocolate candy and I adapted them into one of my own. This is what I did.
 |
| lay out a piece of waxed paper on cooling racks |
 |
Ingredients: 1 chocolate bar
4 oz baker's chocolate
1 pkg almond bark (16-24 oz)
12 oz baking chips
~2 cups Dry roasted peanuts |
 |
Put almond bark into crockpot
(I had just made a batch, so I didn't bother cleaning mine in between) |
 |
| add chocolate bar |
 |
add baker's chocolate.
I've used both semi-sweet and unsweetened |
 |
| add chips. Cover and cook on low for 1 hour untouched. |
 |
| stir |
 |
| The chips may not all be melted. |
 |
Add peanuts.
For 1 batch I added a whole bag (14 oz),
then I had a 35 oz package that I wanted to use for 3 batches,
so I divided it in thirds. It worked out to a little more than 2 cups of peanuts |
 |
Mix
(if your crockpot is large enough, you can add the peanuts right away,
but mine don't fit until the chocolate melts) |
 |
| Recover and cook another half hour, stirring every 15 minutes. |
 |
| Pour candy onto waxed paper |
 |
| Or spoon out |
 |
| Smooth out |
 |
| the bottom of the candy after it cools |
 |
Break into pieces.
From left to right, raisins, regular chocolate w/peanuts, white chocolate peanuts, mint peanuts |
For the white chocolate candy, I used white almond bark, white baker's chocolate, and white baking chips. You could also make this using dark chocolate chips. I'd like to try it with peanut butter chips.
