Nut Clusters
OK all you non bakers out there, are you ready for a super easy candy that you can make and will please your family and friends? This literally has 3 ingredients unless you want
to add more.
First take 6 bars of chocolate almond bark and 12 oz (1 bag) of semi sweet chocolate chips and melt them together in the microwave. Start by heating them for one minute then take it out and stir. I added a 1/2 tsp of vanilla flavoring at this point just for added flavor but that's completely optional. Heat for 30 seconds. Continue to do so until its completely melted and smooth like so.
Next add one pound (16oz) jar of salted peanuts
Stir to combine
Place by the spoonful on a lined baking sheet. I used parchment paper but you could use tin foil or wax paper as well. I used a cookie/ice cream scoop and it worked so well. I would use a large baking sheet because this small one was not big enough. Put them in the fridge to set up and Ta-Da that's it. Now you can't tell me that wasn't easy.
Eat and Enjoy!
