Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 4 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups milk chocolate chips
  • 2 cups peanut butter chips
  • 1 cup chopped salted peanuts

Preparation:

Line a cookie sheet with foil or parchment paper and set aside. Melt 1-3/4 cups milk chocolate chips and all of the peanut butter chips in a large saucepan over low heat, stirring frequently, until smooth. You can also melt the chips in a large bowl in the microwave on Medium power for 2-4 minutes, stirring once during cooking.

Remove from heat (or microwave) and stir in remaining 1/4 cup of the milk chocolate chips until mixture is smooth. This step helps temper the chocolate so it will stay solid at room temperature. Stir in peanuts. [p[]Spread mixture on prepared cookie sheet and refrigerate about 1 hour to harden candy. Break into pieces and store in tightly covered container. Makes 32 candies.
