Helpful Tips to make Easter Crockpot Candy:

You can make this recipe with Candy Quick, Almond Bark (not actually made with almonds), vanilla candy melts and even white chocolate in this recipe. I have tried them all and we have loved every one.
You can use two spoons to drop the candy onto your parchment paper but using a tablespoon scooper is my preferred method. It assures all of the candy will be the same size and it is easier and less messy.

What you will need to make Easter Crockpot Candy:

Vanilla Candy Coating - You can use Candy Quick, Almond Bark (not actually made with almonds), vanilla candy melts and even white chocolate in this recipe.
4-6 Quart Slow Cooker - This is my favorite.
1 Tablespoon Scooper - This is one of my favorite kitchen tools. It is perfect for candy making, meatballs and so many more recipes.
Crockpot Liners - I never use them because I wash the crock when it is still a little warm and the candy comes right out, but if you are worries about the cleanup, these are foolproof.
Parchment Paper-

Enjoy!

Crockpot Candy (VIDEO)

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 a thing for peanut clusters, but the thought of melting the chocolate over the stove or in the microwave, only to have it thicken so quickly because it is chilly in the house frustrates me to no end.

Then I remembered this crockpot candy that I have spotted all over the internet. I know I have professed my love for simple recipes over the years, but I have to tell you this may be my favorite candy recipe ever. It doesn't get much easier and the taste is phenomenal.

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 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.

St Patrick's Day Crockpot Candy (VIDEO)

St Patrick's Day Crockpot Candy is the easiest and most impressive homemade candy ever. A minty sweet 4-ingredient Leprechaun Treat that you simply toss in the slow cooker, stir a few times and scoop it out. It doesn't get much easier than that!

If you are looking for more fun St. Patrick's Day recipes you will love our Lucky Charms No-Bake Pie, Mint Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip, McDonald's Copycat Shamrock Shake, and our Chocolate Mint Oreo Cookie Trifle.

is the easiest and most impressive homemade candy ever St Patrick's Day Crockpot Candy (VIDEO)

We have a thing for peanut clusters around here. And the ease of making Crockpot Candy makes it an absolute favorite.

Do I have to make St Patrick's Day Crockpot Candy in a slow cooker?

You can prepare this on the stovetop if desired. But, the slow cooker gives you a no-fuss recipe and keeps the melted chocolate melty and easy to work with while you are scooping it out.

Can I substitute chocolate chips for the vanilla candy coating?

You can use white chocolate chips or Wilton Candy Melts in place of the vanilla candy coating. I generally use almond bark that you can buy at Wal-Mart. It is what my mom used for peanut clusters and I keep it on hand.

What is vanilla candy coating?

Vanilla candy coating (commonly known as almond bark) is a chocolate-like candy made with vegetable fats instead of cocoa butter. It melts evenly without tempering and is great for candy making.

Can I freeze St Patrick's Day Crockpot Candy?

Allow candy to cool completely. You can toss it in the fridge to speed the process up. Place candy in an airtight container, or in a zip-top freezer bag with the air pressed out. Candy will keep in the freezer for 6 months. Be sure to defrost before serving.

How to Make St. Patrick's Day Crockpot Candy

Combine peanuts and candy coating in the slow cooker on low.
Cook, covered for 1 hour.
Stir.
Cook for another hour.
Stir in all but 1/2 cup of M&M's.
Scoop candy, decorate and allow to set up.

St Patrick's Day Crockpot Candy

prep time: 30 minscook time: 2 hourtotal time: 2 hours and 30 mins

Ingredients

34.5 ounces honey roasted dry roasted peanuts (I used planters)
48 ounces vanilla-flavored candy coating (Almond Bark or CandiQuik)
11.4 ounces Dark Chocolate Mint M&Ms
Garnishes: seasonal sprinkles (I used shamrocks, gold coins, and green & white jimmies)

Instructions

Layer peanuts and then vanilla candy coating into the crockpot (I used a 5-quart). Cover. Cook for 1 hour on low temperature without lifting the lid. After 1 hour, stir the mixture and continue to cook, stirring every 15-20 minutes for another hour (a total of 2 hours).
Meanwhile, line 3 cookie sheets with Silpat mats or line countertop or table with a long piece of parchment paper.
Turn off the crockpot. Reserve 1/2 cup M&M's.
When you are ready to scoop, pour remaining M&M's into the crockpot and fold in.
Working quickly, use a 1-tablespoon scooper to portion out candy from crockpot and onto parchment paper. Make sure candy is not touching. Once the entire cookie sheet is scooped (before candy dries) top with 1 M&M and sprinkles.
Allow the candy to cool completely.

DONNA'S NOTES

Crockpot Candy will keep in the freezer in an airtight container or a ziptop freezer bag for 6 months. Be sure to defrost before serving.
If you wish to have flatter (easier to bite into) candies, use the back of the scooper to press down the candy a bit before it is garnished.
If your kitchen is cool your candy may set up faster. Keep an eye on it and add garnishes after the first dozen or so have been scooped so they do not dry before you can decorate them.

Helpful Tips to make White Chocolate Peppermint Crockpot Candy:

I like to use a mix of white chocolate chips and melting chocolate wafers. The latest are creamier, therefore they give the candy that velvety texture. If you can't get your hands on melting chocolate wafers (aka candy melts), do NOT substitute with chocolate chips, but rather use same amount of a good quality white chocolate bar. Keep in mind, you need good white chocolate for this recipe to taste amazing!
Do NOT try to take a shortcut and cook the candy on High, the recipe doesn't take long to make on the Low setting. If you cook it on high, chances that some of the chocolate will burn are very high.
You can substitute some of the nuts if you are allergic or just don't like some.
Yes, you can make this recipe without the peppermint candies, if you are not a fan.
Very important: don't forget to stir, this will ensure uniform cooking.

What you will need to make White Chocolate Peppermint Crockpot Candy:

Slow Cooker - the slow cooker is almost my most used kitchen gadget, especially during fall/winter! It's just so convenient, and lets face it, it makes comfort food taste even better!
White Chocolate Chips - I buy them in bulk, I always have some on hand.
White Chocolate Melting Wafers - These are of high quality, creamy and specifically designed for melting and candy making.

Enjoy!

Leprechaun Munch Mix Snack (VIDEO)

This snack recipe for St. Paddy's Day makes a fun, sweet and salty treat! Leprechaun Munch Mix Snack Recipe features chocolate dipped pretzels in festive colors along with sweet Chex mix. It’s simple to make, too!

Most people enjoy eating savory foods for St. Paddy’s Day. Meals like Irish stew and corned beef and cabbage are always popular choices.

But at the end of the meal, you might want something sweet. For a festive dessert or snack to celebrate the holiday, make this sweet and salty snack recipe!

This sweet St. Patrick’s Day snack is just as easy to make as my recipe for Leprechaun Bait. The best part is, both kids and adults love it!

The snack recipe ingredients

Like many snacks, the Leprechaun Munch Mix is easy to customize. So, if you want or need to swap any ingredients out, go ahead and add in what you like!

To keep with the theme of St. Patrick’s Day, green, gold, and rainbow colors are in order. But if you want to use this snack recipe for a different holiday, it will be easy to do. Candy melts come in a variety of colors, so have fun with it!

Here’s what you’ll need for the St. Patrick’s Day snack:

Rice Chex cereal- Feel free to use corn or wheat Chex, or a combination of them!
Lucky Charms marshmallows- I use the Special Edition. Oh, and for you marshmallow lovers… Amazon sells Lucky Charms marshmallows in 1 pound bags!
Candy melts- You’ll need dark green, light green, and yellow candy melts
Powdered sugar
Mini pretzels- Be sure to buy the twists because you’ll be dipping them into the candy melts
Andes mints
Gold sanding sugar sprinkles to decorate the pretzels (optional)
Shortening (optional - it helps the consistency of the candy melts)

Supplies

12” x 18” rimmed baking sheet
Large mixing bowl
Microwaveable bowls (to melt the candy melts)
Parchment paper
2-gallon size zip-top food storage bag, or a large paper grocery bag

How to make Leprechaun Munch Mix

These are just basic instructions. Exact ingredient amounts are shown in the recipe card, below.

Line your baking sheet with parchment paper, then set it aside.
Use high power on your microwave to melt light green and yellow candy melts together. It should take about 2 minutes, but stir every 30 to 40 seconds. This will prevent the melts from getting too hot, which can cause them to seize up.
Dip half of each pretzel into the candy melts and lay them on parchment paper. If you want to add the gold sanding sugar sprinkles, this is the time. Let the pretzels cool while you finish making the rest of the snack mix.
Add the Rice Chex cereal to a large mixing bowl.
Melt dark green candy melts in the microwave for 1 minute, then stir until smooth.
Pour the green melts into the Rice Chex and mix until all of the cereal is coated. Let cool
Pour the coated cereal into a zip-top bag, add 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, and shake to coat.
Repeat with the light green candy melts and remaining Rice Chex cereal. Let cool.
Cut Andes mints in half and place them into a serving bowl.
Add the pretzels, marshmallows, and coated cereal into the bowl with the mints. Stir or toss with your hands to combine.

If you plan to attend any St. Paddy’s Day parties, this makes a great snack!

For school parties, you may want to check the class allergy list first. Because of the wheat in pretzels, you need to be sure that there are no gluten allergies.

Other St. Patrick’s Day Snacks

If you want a little more of the Irish luck, make a batch of St. Patrick’s Day crockpot candy. It’s a hands-off recipe, so you can let it cook while you make the Leprechaun Munch Mix!

Also, because you will already have some Lucky Charms marshmallows on hand, making Lucky Charms marshmallow treats is a great way to use them!

Speaking of simple recipes, of course, our new cookbook {The Simple Kitchen - available to order now}is packed with delicious, easy recipes.
