Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 bags (12 oz) white baking chips Use high-quality chips for the best flavor.
  • 2 bags (12 oz) colored melting wafers Choose festive colors for vibrancy.
  • 32 oz salted peanuts Can be substituted with sunflower seeds for nut allergies.
  • 2 cups candy-coated chocolate pieces (like M&Ms) Divided, with half reserved for topping.
  • 1.5 cups crushed mini pretzels Adds a satisfying crunch.
  • 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter Optional for added creaminess.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line the slow cooker with a liner or parchment paper.
  2. Layer the white baking chips followed by the colored melting wafers, and drizzle peanut butter over the top if using.
Cooking
  1. Cover and set the slow cooker on LOW for one hour.
  2. Carefully stir the mixture after an hour until melted and smooth.
Mixing and Shaping
  1. Fold in salted peanuts and crushed pretzels, adding half of the reserved candy-coated pieces.
  2. Drop dollops of the mixture onto baking sheets lined with wax or parchment paper.
  3. Press reserved candy-coated pieces onto each dollop while still warm.
Cooling and Storage
  1. Allow candies to cool completely at room temperature or refrigerate for a quicker set.
  2. Store in an airtight container to keep fresh.

Notes

Maintain your slow cooker on low to avoid overheating and causing the chocolate to seize. These treats can be frozen for up to three months.
