CrockPot Candy
16 oz. salted peanuts or mixed nuts
16 oz. dry roasted peanuts
24 oz. bag semisweet chocolate chips
24 oz. white almond bark
1 Baker's Sweet German chocolate baking bar
Place all ingredients in a large CrockPot on low for 3 hours. Stir to blend. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper or parchment paper.
**A combination of 1/4 cup additional mixed nuts, white chocolate (chips or a white chocolate bunny that may be hiding in your freezer since easter) and about a Tbsp of almond extract is usually cheaper to add than the almond bark.
