Crock Pot Candy!

This recipe is from a blog called “The Slow-Roasted Italian”
Crock pot candy is the easiest and most impressive homemade candy. A rich chocolate, peanut, 4 ingredient recipe that you simply toss in your crock pot, stir a few times and scoop it out.
It doesn’t get much easier than that!

34.5 ounces honey roasted dry roasted peanuts (I used Planters)
32 ounces almond bark (vanilla flavored)
12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
4 ounces German chocolate bar (by Baker’s)
optional garnish: sprinkles or crushed candy canes

Layer ingredients into your crock pot (I used a 5 quart), cover.
Cook for 1 hour on low temperature. Do not stir.
After 1-hour stir the mixture and continue to cook, stirring every 15-20 minutes for another hour (a total of 2 hours).

Meanwhile line the counter top or table with a long piece of parchment paper.
Turn off the crock pot.
Use a 1 tablespoon scooper to scoop out the candy from your crock pot and onto parchment paper.
Make sure the candy is not touching. Top with your favorite garnish.
Allow to cool completely.
