A festive and indulgent Crockpot Christmas Candy recipe combining creamy peanut butter, crunchy nuts, and rich chocolate, perfect for holiday gatherings or gifting.

Ingredients

Scale

Nuts

  • 2 cups peanuts (dry roasted or regular salted)
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Chocolate & Peanut Butter

  • 1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 lb. vanilla almond bark
  • 1 lb. chocolate almond bark
  • 12 oz. dark chocolate chips

Decoration

  • 1/4 cup Christmas sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Toss all ingredients except the Christmas sprinkles into your slow cooker. This mixture includes peanuts, pecans, peanut butter, vanilla almond bark, chocolate almond bark, and dark chocolate chips. Preparing them together starts the melting process.
  2. Cook and Stir: Set the slow cooker on low for 2 hours or high for 1 hour, stirring every 20 minutes to ensure even melting and prevent burning. The continuous stirring helps achieve a smooth, blended texture.
  3. Portion Candy: Once the mixture is fully melted and combined, spoon about 2 tablespoons of the candy into each cupcake liner placed inside a regular-sized muffin tin. This helps maintain shape while cooling.
  4. Add Sprinkles: Top each portion with Christmas sprinkles if desired. The sprinkles add festive color and a bit of crunch to the finished candy.
  5. Chill: Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or until the candy is firm and set.
  6. Serve: Once set, the Christmas candy is ready to enjoy. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge to keep fresh.

Notes

  • Use peanut butter that is creamy for a smooth texture; natural peanut butter may alter consistency.
  • Stir frequently during cooking to avoid the chocolate burning or sticking to the slow cooker.
  • The candy can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • You can substitute nuts based on preference or allergies, but keep the total roughly the same quantity.
  • For a gluten-free version, confirm all ingredients, especially sprinkles and almond bark, are certified gluten-free.
