Description

This Easter Crockpot Candy is a no-fuss, no-bake treat that’s perfect for holiday celebrations! Made with creamy chocolate, crunchy nuts, and colorful toppings, this candy is as fun to make as it is to eat.

 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb white almond bark or white candy melts
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup peanut butter chips
  • 1 1/2 cups salted peanuts
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows (optional)
  • 1/2 cup pastel-colored sprinkles or candy-coated chocolates

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crockpot:
    • Line a baking sheet or countertop with parchment paper. Spray the inside of your crockpot lightly with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt the Chocolate:
    • Add the white almond bark, semisweet chocolate chips, and peanut butter chips to the crockpot. Cover and cook on LOW heat for 1-1.5 hours, stirring every 20-30 minutes until melted and smooth.
  3. Add the Mix-Ins:
    • Once the chocolate mixture is melted, stir in the salted peanuts and mini marshmallows (if using) until evenly coated.
  4. Spoon the Candy:
    • Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop dollops of the mixture onto the prepared parchment paper.
  5. Decorate:
    • Quickly sprinkle pastel candies or sprinkles on top before the candy sets.
  6. Let It Harden:
    • Allow the candy to cool and harden completely at room temperature (about 1 hour) or speed up the process by placing it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
  7. Serve and Enjoy:
    • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or refrigerate for longer freshness.

Notes

  • Substitute peanuts with almonds, pecans, or cashews for a different flavor profile.
  • Add shredded coconut or dried fruit for extra texture.
  • These candies make a great gift! Wrap them in decorative bags or boxes for Easter-themed presents.
