Can this recipe be doubled?

Yes, you can easily double or triple this recipe with no changes.

How long does homemade Christmas candy last?

Christmas candy will last up to one week in an air-tight container. You can always freeze leftovers so they last a bit longer.

Can I make this crockpot Christmas candy nut-free?

Yes, absolutely. Replace the nuts with pretzels, chow mein noodles, caramel bits and/or dried fruits.

Can I make this crockpot Christmas candy on the stove or microwave?

Yes, you can. The slow cooker is not necessary; it just gives a more hands-off approach, For the stove : Add all the chocolate to a large pot. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently until the chocolate has melted. Add the nuts and continue with the recipe. For the microwave : Add the chocolates to a microwave-safe bowl. Melt on high for 1 minute and stir. Continue melting the candy at 30-second increments, stirring each time. Once the chocolate has melted, stir in the peanuts. One thing to keep in mind for the stovetop or microwave version versus the slow cooker is the chocolate will harden quickly, so you will need to work fast to get all the candy scooped out. (You can keep the slow cooker on warm to keep the chocolate from setting up too fast.)

Should I use salted or unsalted peanuts?

This is a matter of choice. I love salted for that salty/sweet combination. If using unsalted, try sprinkling a bit of sea salt over the tops.

Why isn\'t my Crock Pot Candy Setting up?

It is hard to say what the issue is without being there with you. It could be the house is too warm or the type of chocolate you used. Give the candy a full hour to set up; after that you can place it in the fridge to fully harden.

Instructions

Add all the ingredients to a large crockpot. You can lightly grease it if you wish.
Slow cook on low for one hour to 1.5 hours. (All Crock pots heat differently, so I recommend checking the candy at 1 hour to ensure the chocolate does not burn. Stir if necessary and keep checking on the candy in 15-minute increments until fully melted)
Once all the chocolate is melted, give it a good stir, until well combined.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the parchment paper. (I did about 2 tablespoons per candy cluster.)
Sprinkle each one with optional Christmas sprinkles. Let cool until the candy fully hardens.
