Preparation

Step 1

Crockpot Candy is the easiest and most impressive homemade candy ever. A rich chocolaty, peanutty 4 ingredient recipe that you simply toss in the slow cooker, stir a few times and scoop it out. It doesn't get much easier than that!

I have been really loving my crockpots lately. Honestly I only cook a few times a week and then we reheat our dinners the other days. I don't know how that happened, but I like it and it works for us.As of late, on the cooking days you will find a slow cooker (or 3) on the counter.

When I started thinking about candy making, the slow cooker was on my mind and this recipe immediately popped in my head. So I sent Chad to the store to grab a few things at the store and I had candy in just a few short hours (start to finish while my daughter napped). Rich and chocolaty this recipe is so easy to make it will certainly become a family tradition.

Layer ingredients into crockpot (I used a 5 quart), cover. Cook for 1 hour on low temperature. Do not stir. After 1 hour stir mixture and continue to cook, stirring every 15-20 minutes for another hour (a total of 2 hours).

Turn off crockpot. Use a 1 tablespoon scooper to scoop out candy from crockpot and onto parchment paper. Make sure candy is not touching. Top with favorite garnish.
