Have you ever dreamed of being one of those people who hands out homemade candy at Christmas, but secretly loathe those with that much time on their hands during the holidays? Well my friend, this recipe is for you. I’ve been making cookies, candies, treats and tasty things at Christmas time for two decades (sheesh I’m old), and never have I found a goodie that takes less time and effort than this Crockpot Christmas Crack.
This stuff is the easiest Christmas candy ever. EVER. You literally throw all the ingredients in a crockpot, wait a bit, stir, then drop blobs out onto wax paper to cool. Boom. Done. For the super fancy, you can drop the candy blobs into mini cupcake liners. Ooooooh, so very Martha, Betty, Paula, Ina of you!
Bonus. It tastes incredible. Peanuty chocolatey goodness. You’d swear it came from an upscale sweet shop. Double bonus. It makes a TON. You’ll be able to gift a bag to your neighbors, your co-workers, church small group, kids sports team, cashiers at the corner store, postman, hairdresser, in-laws, out-laws, the butcher, baker and the candlestick maker. Plus still have enough to leave some for Santa, and make yourself sick off what’s left.

You think you’re old? If you’re old, what am I???
That’s an excellent point. I think that makes you wise. 🙂
Thank you, want to try these recipes!
Yum! Thank you bakerlady. My batch needed about 20 more minutes to get completely melted. It made over 100 in the mini cupcake liners. Wow!
What could be substituted for the peanut butter chips?
Maybe butterscotch chips
Holiday – Dessert – Christmas – Christmas Appetizer – Chocolate – Milk Chocolate – Christmas Snack Mixes
Can I make turtles the same way? I have a 5 lb. Bag of caramel melts I’d like to use.
When this is done, pour onto paper or in a dish to use a mini scoop. Leaving it sitting in the pan as you scoop it continues to cook and burn the bottom chocolate, as the pan/dish crockpot is still hot.
I add dried cranbrries to this recipe. Tastes just like a Chunky Bar
Need an answer to peanut butter chip question please.
I’m not going to use peanuts. I have almonds that I’ll crush or walnuts that I’ll break up but not crushed. No peanut chips either. Maybe stir in oatmeal. ( I love uncooked oatmeal )
