chocolate nut clusters


I love Chocolate.  I love Nuts. Put nuts in the chocolate and I could absolutely wilt.  If I only made one treat at Christmas (which was how this year was SUPPOSED to be) it would be this one.  I only let myself make it at Christmas because it makes around 100 clusters and I could seriously over the course of two days eat 50 of them.  Dangerous. 
Another reason why I love these guys is how easy they are to prepare!  Throw all the ingredients in a slow cooker and walk away!!
Chocolate Nut Clusters:
2 pounds chocolate almond bark
1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 box german chocolate baking squares
32 ounces salted peanuts (about 6 cups)
Cook on low in slow cooker for 2 hours.
Stir in 2 cups cashews and 1 teaspoon vanilla.
Drop by spoonful onto parchment or wax paper.
Enjoy!

    Those sound really good. Another good peanut cluster recipe is.
    2 bags milk chocolate chips
    1 bag butterscotch chips
    Melt together add peanuts drop onto wax paper by teaspoon. I do not know how many peanuts depends if you want a lot of chocolate on them or not much. A guy brings these to work every year. Yum
