Description

Indulge in the ultimate chocolate and nut treat with these Slow Cooker Triple Chocolate Covered Peanut Clusters. Combining dry-roasted peanuts, salted cashews, and three types of rich chocolates—chocolate candy coating squares, semisweet chocolate chips, and German chocolate baking squares—this easy slow cooker recipe results in deliciously melty, perfectly coated clusters that set beautifully on parchment paper. Perfect for gift-giving or a decadent snack, these no-fuss clusters deliver intense chocolate flavor and satisfying crunch with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale

Nut Ingredients

  • 2 (16-oz) jars dry-roasted peanuts
  • 1 (9.75-oz) can salted whole cashews

Chocolate Ingredients

  • 36 oz chocolate candy coating squares
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 (4-oz) package German chocolate baking squares, broken into pieces

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In your slow cooker, add both jars of dry-roasted peanuts, the can of salted whole cashews, chocolate candy coating squares, semisweet chocolate chips, and broken German chocolate baking squares.
  2. Cook and Melt: Cover the slow cooker and set it to LOW heat for 2 hours. During this time, stir occasionally to ensure that all the nuts get evenly coated as the chocolates melt and blend together smoothly.
  3. Form Clusters: Once the chocolate mixture is fully melted and the nuts are well coated, use a spoon to drop spoonfuls of the chocolate-nut mixture onto wax or parchment paper laid out on a tray or countertop.
  4. Set and Store: Allow the clusters to stand at room temperature until they become firm and set completely. Afterward, transfer the clusters to an airtight container for storage to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Use a slow cooker liner or spray the slow cooker insert with non-stick spray for easier cleanup.
  • Stir the mixture every 30 minutes during cooking to prevent chocolate from sticking to the sides and burning.
  • For a nuttier crunch, you can substitute or add almonds or pecans.
  • If desired, sprinkle sea salt lightly on clusters before they set for an added flavor contrast.
  • Store finished clusters in a cool, dry place to maintain texture and freshness for up to two weeks.
