How to make crock pot peanut clusters

Step 1: Place the cocktail peanuts on the bottom of a 6 quart slow cooker.

You will need a full size crock pot for this recipe, as the peanuts and chocolate will fill it almost to the top.

Step 2: Top the peanuts with the semi sweet chocolate chips, then the dark chocolate chips, then the milk chocolate chips.

Step 3: Place the white chocolate chips on top and cover with the slow cooker lid.

Step 4: Cook the chocolate peanuts on low for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes, until the chocolate is completely melted.

Step 5: Line baking sheets with wax paper.

Use a mini cookie scoop or a spoon to drop chocolate covered peanuts onto the baking sheets.

You will need 2-3 baking sheets as this recipe makes around 60 peanut clusters.

I found that 20 clusters would fit per baking sheet.
