This is a very easy recipe and rather than putting a couple teaspoons in each mold, try putting the mixture all over the mold then scrape the excess off with a kitchen scraper. So much faster and the chocolate will be more evenly distributed in the mold....and it's a better presentation with the flat bottoms. Professional candy maker here, and that's how I make all my filled candies and it works with this too.
To make it easier I scoop laddles on the mold then use an icing spatula to scrape the excess on top back in the pot. Then I pop it in a warm oven just so it melts into the corners without the fuss. Great job! I've also added coconut extract or Almond extract for a change of pace. TFS! -Heather
I’m SHOCKED those turned out that cute!! I felt bad you were going to all that trouble. I thought you were going to be disappointed!! I’m so excited because I have the molds too!!
When making these use only the best chc. Chips, not elcheap-o.. Finishs candy comes out tasting better. I use hurshy milk choc. Chips..i even add extra bag choc. Chips..its yummy..makes alot candy..
Love the crock pot usage! What setting do you use? High or low or serve is all mine has😕 Thanks for yet another awesome idea Leigh! Hugs and blessings💞
You know, I'm not sure. The bark candy is easy to melt, so I think that's why it's used. They make a chocolate version that might work out well. Thanks for watching.
I forgot to mention that you set slow cooker to LOW. Sorry about that!
LeighsHome did u use both almond bark bags or just half of the other one?
I used a total of 32 ounces. I *think* I used 4 rectangles from the second package of almond bark.

Thanks, I was going to ask if it supposed to be on high because that’s what you had yours set at.
Glad I saw that! Thanks! ✌️

Butterscotch chips and dark chocolate chips are WONDERFUL!

Adorable! What if you chopped the peanuts first? Would be easier to fill the molds. My mom makes these every year and stores them in zip lock bags.
I thought about chopping them while I was attempting to fill the molds. LOL I'm sure that would work so much better. Thanks for watching!
Great job!
LOOKS GOOD LWUGH
Thank you!
Makers get ⭐⭐⭐⭐❤️👑
Why can’t you eat them? I have that exact same slow cooker… Can’t wait to make these - thanks for the recipe❤
At the time, I was not eating sugar. I've since come to my senses. LOL
@@LeighsHome05 Good for you!!😄👍🏻
that was awesome. tfs
Thank you!
So cute!😊
Sooooo cute 🥰!! The other ones look like cow patties 😂
Yummy
You should have sprayed the mold with cooking spray
These look so yummy n easy. I have an old school slow cooker, not digital. Is it on high or low?? Tfs
Low. Sorry, that I forgot to mention that in the video.
Love the crock pot usage! What setting do you use? High or low or serve is all mine has😕 Thanks for yet another awesome idea Leigh! Hugs and blessings💞
It's on low. I forgot to mention that in the video, but I have just added it to the description. Thanks for watching!
@@LeighsHome05 Thank you SO much!!!!
Could you use Rice Krispies also/instead?
I've never tried it, but it sounds good.
That look good, can you just use chocolate or what is the bark candy for?
You know, I'm not sure. The bark candy is easy to melt, so I think that's why it's used. They make a chocolate version that might work out well. Thanks for watching.
have you tried the chocolate almond bark ???
No, I haven't.
Can I chop the peanuts up a little bit?
Can I use my Instant pot?
I have no idea. Sorry
I only have a crockpot. Will that work?
yes
Hello. My crockpot candy came out grainy. What did I do wrong?
I'm not sure. Sorry
Maybe got water in it.
Did u spray the molds
Nope.
Did u spray the mold?
Nope, you don't need to spray silicone molds.
Did all those come from one slow cooker recipe?
Yes
How long do I leave it in the fridge?
15-30 minutes
What temp do you set it on
Low
What does the almond bark do?
@Jeanne 2978 I don’t know, but all the crock pot/slow cooker/Christmas crack recipes that I’ve watched have it. Merry Christmas!
My peanuts got too roasted.
