Instructions
Creating these peanut clusters is a straightforward process, thanks to the magic of slow cooking. Follow these easy steps to whip up a batch of these delightful treats:
- Combine Ingredients: Place all the ingredients—semi-sweet chocolate chips, dark or milk chocolate chips, creamy peanut butter, and dry roasted peanuts—into your slow cooker.
- Cook: Set the slow cooker on low and let it work its magic for 1 hour. This gentle cooking method allows the ingredients to meld together perfectly.
- Melt: After the initial hour, stir the mixture with a spatula to ensure everything is well combined. Cover the slow cooker and continue cooking, stirring every 15 minutes, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Scoop: Once the chocolate mixture is ready, use a tablespoon to drop dollops onto a baking sheet lined with parchment or wax paper. This helps prevent the clusters from sticking.
- Cool: Allow the clusters to firm up at room temperature or place them in the refrigerator for quicker cooling.
- Store: For the best taste and texture, store your peanut clusters in an airtight container in the fridge.
With these simple steps, you’ll have a batch of mouth-watering peanut clusters ready to enjoy!
