Description

A delicious and easy treat made in a slow cooker, perfect for parties or gift-giving.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds white almond bark
  • 2 cups dry roasted salted peanuts
  • 1 1/2 cups mini pretzels, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup caramel bits
  • 1 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
  • Sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place almond bark, peanuts, and chopped pretzels into the slow cooker.
  2. Cover and cook on LOW for 1 hour. Do not stir during this time.
  3. Once the almond bark is fully melted, turn off the slow cooker and stir thoroughly to coat the peanuts and pretzels evenly.
  4. Stir in caramel bits and mini marshmallows. Mix until marshmallows soften and everything is well combined.
  5. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Drop about 2 tablespoons of mixture per cluster onto the parchment.
  6. Immediately add sprinkles if desired.
  7. Let clusters sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour, or refrigerate to set faster.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
  • Use chocolate almond bark instead of white for a different flavor.
  • Swap caramel bits for 12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • Try different nuts like cashews, pecans, or walnuts.
  • Replace pretzels with Rice Krispies, Cheerios, or Chex cereal.
  • Double the peanuts and skip pretzels for extra nutty clusters.
