Why using a crockpot?
Actually, you can use a microwave instead of a slow cooker to melt things together; but a crockpot is better!
Use what you’re comfortable at, our tips and utensils can change (you can even make your own recipe with your own rules).
In case you decided to use a crockpot for this recipe, I advise you to use 6 quarts Multicooker, it has the perfect size and it works just fine as a pressure cooker too.
Simple Steps:
- In a slow cooker, add white almond bark, German chocolate bar, peanuts and semisweet chocolate chips.
- Without mixing, let it cook for an hour (set your crock pot on low).
- When all is set, combine everything together with a wooden spoon.
- Cook for an extra 1 hour while stirring.
- Use a spoonful of the candy mixture to drop onto wax paper.
- Cool before serving!
Ingredients
- 4 ounces of German chocolate bar
- 2 pounds of white almond bark
- 2 ounces bag id semisweet chocolate chips
- 24 ounces of dry roasted peanuts
- Sprinkles
- Sea salt
Having problems with your candy?
Well, if your candy isn’t setting up, refrigerate the mixture for some time and you’re all set.

I believe those candies taste great, aren’t they? In fact, what are holidays without a bunch of homemade candies and funny moments!
Important notes:
- Almond bark can be replaced with a mixture of white chocolate and 1 tablespoon of shortening.
- Crockpot candy can last up to 3 weeks (make sure to keep them in a dark place in an airtight container).
- In case you had so much pieces, freeze them! It’ll stay up to a year in the freezer.
- Since you’re using only 4 ingredients, use an interesting amount of them!
- For better results, add peanuts at the end (peanuts don’t require much time in the crockpot).
- If possible, refrigerate the candies (on the baking sheets) for an hour or so, until hard.
Serving Ideas
There is nothing better than eating candy, it makes the soul happy more than anything!
As for the serving, you can keep it simple and serve it along with big glasses of milkshakes!
