Slow Cooker

Ingredients

1 bag milk chocolate chips
1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 bag white chocolate chips
1 bag dark chocolate chips
2 pounds roasted salted peanuts
Optional: flaky salt such as Maldon sea salt

Instructions

Place the chocolate in slow cooker. Cook on LOW for 1 to 1 ½ hours, stirring often to make sure the chocolate doesn’t burn.
When the chocolate is melted, give it a good stir and add the nuts to the crockpot.
Stir well and turn the slow cooker to warm.
Use a cookie scoop to scoop clusters onto the parchment lined baking sheets. If desired, sprinkle with salt every 5 or 6 clusters. (Before the chocolate starts to set.)
Allow to set in the refrigerator for about an hour, or until firm.

Notes

Storing Homemade Peanut Clusters

Store slow cooker peanut clusters in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to three weeks.

You can freeze them for up to three months.

I recommend freezing them first on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Once they are solid, transfer them to a freezer bag for storage.

You can enjoy crock pot nut clusters straight from the freezer or let them thaw in the fridge or at room temperature if you prefer. (I love them straight from the freezer!)
