Crockpot Christmas Crack (Chocolate Peanut Candy)
Ingredients
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Salted peanuts | 16 oz |
| Unsalted peanuts | 16 oz |
| Semi-sweet chocolate chips | 2 bags (12 oz each) |
| Peanut butter chips | 2 bags (10 oz each) |
| White chocolate chips or wafers | 2 bags (10 oz each) |

Instructions
Step 1: Add the Peanuts
Place both the salted and unsalted peanuts into the bottom of the Crockpot. Stir lightly to combine.
Step 2: Layer the Chocolate
Without stirring, layer the semi-sweet chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and white chocolate chips (or wafers) on top of the peanuts.
Step 3: Slow Cook – First Round
Cover and cook on LOW for 2 hours. Avoid removing the lid during this time.
Step 4: Stir It Up
After 2 hours, remove the lid and stir everything thoroughly until smooth and well mixed. The chips should be fully melted and the peanuts evenly coated.
Step 5: Slow Cook – Second Round
Replace the lid and cook on LOW for an additional 30 minutes.
Step 6: Scoop and Decorate
Spoon the warm mixture onto parchment-lined baking sheets or into mini cupcake liners. While the candy is still soft, add festive sprinkles on top.
Step 7: Let It Set
Allow the candy to cool and harden completely at room temperature. Once set, serve or store in an airtight container.
