Make sweet, salty, crunchy, and creamy peanut clusters using just four simple ingredients in your slow cooker. This easy, no-bake recipe is perfect for holiday cookie trays or homemade gifts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (12 ounce) bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 (12 ounce) bag peanut butter chips
  • 1 (10 ounce) bag dry roasted peanuts
  • 1 (12 ounce) package almond bark or vanilla coating wafers

Instructions

  1. Lightly grease the inside of your small slow cooker (2-quart size works best).
  2. Combine the chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and dry roasted peanuts in the slow cooker.
  3. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 1 hour, stirring every 20 minutes until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Do not overcook.
  4. Once melted, stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
  6. Drop the mixture by rounded spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet. You can make them any size you prefer.
  7. While the clusters are still wet, you can sprinkle them with festive holiday sprinkles, if desired.
  8. Allow the clusters to set completely at room temperature, or place them in the refrigerator for about 1 hour to speed up the process.
  9. Once firm, store the crockpot peanut clusters in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For a salty-sweet balance, use salted dry roasted peanuts.
  • If you do not have almond bark, you can substitute it with an additional bag of white chocolate chips, though the texture may be slightly softer.
  • This recipe is excellent for making ahead of time for holiday cookie exchanges or as easy Christmas gifts from the kitchen.
