Crockpot Halloween Candy is a festive Halloween treat that is so easy to make right in the slow cooker! Creamy white almond bark, crunchy roasted peanuts, Halloween M&M's & sprinkles, and edible eyeballs make this a fun and spooky treat.
* I recommend using a crockpot liner for easy cleanup. If you don't have them, simply spray the insert of the slow cooker with cooking spray (just a light coating of it is all you need).
Break up the white almond bark into the cubes and place them into the bottom of the crockpot.
16 ounces vanilla almond bark
Add the dry roasted peanuts over top the almond bark.
2 cups dry roasted peanuts
Cover with the lid and cook on LOW heat for 1 hour without stirring.
Stir the mixture well to ensure even melting. Continue cooking for another 15 minutes, and stir it again. Make sure all the chocolate is melted and combined with the peanuts.* If needed, continue cooking in 15 minute increments until it's completely melted.
Turn off the crockpot and add 1 cup of the Halloween M&M's and gently stir to mix them into the melted chocolate and peanuts. Be careful not to stir too vigorously because the M&M's might start to melt.
2 cups Halloween M&M's
Lay a piece of parchment paper or wax paper on the countertop. Drop spoonfuls of the candy mixture onto the parchment paper. While the candy is still warm, sprinkle each one with a few Halloween M&M's on top and sprinkles. Gently press a couple edible eyeballs into each candy (if using).
1/4 cup Halloween sprinkles, edible eyeballs
Allow the candy to cool and harden at room temperature. This may take several hours.
Once set, the candy can be served immediately or stored inside an airtight container, at room temperature, for up to 1 week.
