Cook Time:1 hour 15 minutes
Cooling Time:35 minutes
Total Time:2 hours

Ingredients

  • 16 oz jar roasted salted peanuts
  • 16 oz jar honey roasted peanuts
  • 2 (24 oz) vanilla almond bark
  • 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup pastel M&Ms
  • Bunny sprinkles mix

Instructions

  • Toss the peanuts into your crockpot, then break up the almond bark and scatter it on top. No stirring yet!
  • Pop the lid on and set your slow cooker to LOW for one hour. When time’s up, give everything a good stir. If it’s still lumpy, cook for another 15 minutes until smooth.
  • Turn OFF the crockpot and let the mixture sit at room temp for 30-45 minutes.
  • Once the chocolate is cool but still creamy, fold in your M&Ms and marshmallows. Then, using a cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls onto parchment-lined baking sheets.
  • Quickly press a few extra M&Ms and sprinkles on top before they harden.
  • Leave the candies at room temperature for 1 hour or pop them in the fridge for 20-30 minutes to speed things up.
