HOW TO MAKE CROCK POT SALTY-SWEET CANDY
Step 1: In a slow cooker, place the chocolate candy coating, white chocolate baking bar, and white chocolate chips. Cover and set to heat the candy on low for 1 to 1 ½ hours until melted. Then, remove the cover and stir the mixture well.
Step 2: Add the peanuts along with the broken pretzels and stir well until fully coated.
Step 3: Onto a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper, drop spoonfuls of the mixture. For this, I use a small cookie scoop. While the chocolate is still soft, sprinkle the candy with sprinkles if desired.
Step 4: Set aside for an hour to allow the candy to set.
