Ingredients Needed
- Peanuts: Give your chocolate candy a nice crunch and a bit of salty, nutty flavor to balance out the rich sweetness.
- Chocolate Chips: I use both chocolate chips and white chocolate chips for a good balance.
- Peanut Butter Chips: Makes your crockpot candy creamy and doubles down on the nutty flavor.
- Semi Sweet Baking Bar: For even more chocolate flavor with added richness and complexity.
How to Make this Crockpot Christmas Candy
- Step 1: Add roasted peanuts to the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Step 2: Pour the chocolate chips over the peanuts.
- Step 3: Layer in the peanut butter chips and semi sweet baking bar.
- Step 4: Finish off the mixture by adding the white chocolate chips. Cover and cook on low for an hour or two, stirring halfway through.

- Step 5: Once the mixture is fully melted and combined, scoop the candy onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Step 6: Top candy clusters with sprinkles or other toppings of your choice, then refrigerate on the cookie sheet for 20 minutes (or until fully set).

Recipe Tips
- Don’t rush this recipe! Cook on low to avoid scorching the chocolate or causing it to seize up.
- For the peanuts, salted peanuts and unsalted peanuts both work well but each provide a slightly different flavor.
- Use a small cookie scoop to evenly portion the chocolate mixture. Spraying the scoop with some baking spray or even coating with butter will prevent the chocolate from sticking too much.
- You can mix all kinds of other toppings into this Christmas candy! Toffee bits, macadamia nuts, pretzel pieces, and mini marshmallows are all great additions.
- I use semi-sweet chocolate chips, but you can use milk chocolate chips for a sweeter result.
