Ingredients
Cluster Ingredients
- 30 ounces mixed nuts
- 24 ounces white almond bark
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 10 ounces peanut butter chips
Drizzle Ingredients
- 4 ounces white baking chocolate
Instructions
- Prepare Almond Bark: Break the white almond bark into small pieces to ensure even melting in the slow cooker.
- Combine Ingredients: Place the broken almond bark, mixed nuts, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and peanut butter chips into the slow cooker and stir them together until well combined.
- Cook Mixture: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 1.5 hours, stirring frequently to maintain an even melt and prevent burning.
- Form Clusters: Once melted and still warm, spoon approximately two tablespoons of the mixture onto parchment paper to create clusters. Repeat until all mixture is used. Allow clusters to cool and set.
- Melt White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white baking chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until smooth.
- Drizzle White Chocolate: Transfer the melted white chocolate to a piping bag or small ziplock bag with a tiny corner cut off and drizzle it artistically over the cooled clusters.
- Serve: Allow the drizzle to set completely, then serve and enjoy your delicious chocolate nut clusters.
Notes
- Stir the mixture frequently during cooking to avoid scorching and ensure even melting.
- Use parchment paper to prevent clusters from sticking while they cool.
- For a different flavor twist, try adding a pinch of sea salt or cinnamon to the cluster mixture before cooking.
- Clusters can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or refrigerated for longer freshness.
