How To Make Crockpot Christmas Crack (Chocolate Peanut Candy):
Step 1: Layer the Peanuts
Start by combining the salted and unsalted peanuts in the bottom of your Crockpot. Give them a quick mix to evenly distribute.
Step 2: Add Remaining Ingredients
Next, layer the rest of your ingredients over the peanuts—semi-sweet chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and white chocolate chips or wafers. Do not stir at this stage; just layer them and let the magic happen.
Step 3: First Cook
Cover your Crockpot and set it on LOW. Let it cook untouched for about 2 hours. Resist the urge to lift the lid—it’s doing important work in there!
Step 4: Stir Everything Together
After 2 hours, remove the lid and stir thoroughly until all the chocolates are fully melted and the peanuts are beautifully coated in that luscious chocolate blend.
Step 5: Final Cook
Place the lid back on and let it cook for another 30 minutes on LOW to ensure everything is perfectly smooth and combined.
Step 6: Drop and Garnish
Spoon the warm candy mixture onto parchment paper or into mini cupcake liners. Immediately add festive Christmas sprinkles for a cheerful holiday touch.
Step 7: Harden and Serve
Allow the candies to cool completely and harden before serving or packaging them up for gifts.
These sweet, salty clusters make perfect edible gifts or a delightful addition to your dessert table. They store beautifully and taste even better the next day, making them a true holiday winner.
