Servings: 40 clusters

Ingredients

  • 12 oz 340g semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 lb 450g white almond bark or white chocolate chips
  • 4 oz 115g German chocolate bar, broken into pieces
  • 2 cups 250g salted peanuts
  • 1 cup 125g unsalted peanuts
  • 1 cup 120g pecan halves
  • 1/2 cup 120g M&Ms, for garnish

Instructions

  • Begin by adding the white almond bark, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and broken pieces of German chocolate to the crockpot. Layer the salted peanuts, unsalted peanuts, and pecan halves on top of the chocolate.
  • Set the crockpot to LOW and secure the lid. Allow the mixture to cook gently for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to ensure the chocolate melts evenly and the ingredients combine smoothly.
  • Once the chocolate is fully melted and the nut mixture is well coated, use a spoon or small cookie scoop to drop dollops of the candy mixture onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • While the chocolate is still soft, garnish the tops of each cluster with M&Ms, pressing them lightly to ensure they adhere.
  • Let the candy cool and set completely at room temperature for about 1 to 2 hours. If you’re short on time, place the baking sheets in the refrigerator to speed up the setting process.
  • Once the clusters are firm, transfer them to an airtight container. These festive treats are perfect for enjoying at home or gifting in decorative tins to spread holiday cheer.
