I have been blessed to find a fantastic community here with my blogging friends. I have met many lovely acquaintances as well as several very close friends. One of the people who I have become very good friends with is Sadie. She is a stay at home mom to 4 beautiful kids and a lovely person. Sadie highlights many lovely things on her blog including wonderful recipes. She recently posted this recipe for candy and we tried it today. We love it! The only thing we changed is adding some shredded sweetened coconut. If you don’t have the pleasure of knowing this special person, please head over toΒ Sadie’s Nest Loving Life From My Perch.
CROCKPOT TOFFEE NUTΒ CLUSTERS
When I think about what I like in a candy, it usually involves chocolate and nuts, chewy and crunchy,Β sweet and salty. I also really love toffee. Lucky for me there is really not much I donβt like. And even luckier for me, these little clusters of goodnessΒ have it all! Recently I shared with you about my cousin Charlotte. Thankfully she shared this recipe with me! It really couldnβt get much easier either. It makes a lot of these chocolatey and nutty packages, so itβs great for giving as gifts or sharing at the office. And not to worry, if there are still leftoversβ¦ they freeze well too. Enjoy!
2 small jars (16 oz each) dry roasted peanuts (1 salted, 1 unsalted)
3 lbs or blocks of white almond bark, vanilla Candiquick or vanilla candy coating, chopped into small pieces
1/2 lb Bakers semi-sweet chocolate, chopped into small pieces
1 bag Heath chips
1 bag Milk chocolate chips
1 bag Semi sweet chocolate chips
For the rest of the recipe go to:
Yum-!

Lynn, these sound great. We just have to have a plan for the “extras” if we make them or I’ll not be able to control myself and eat them in massive excess. I also enjoyed another post on Sadie’s site and left a comment there. Thanks for introducing her site.

I love toffee Lynn, and I really love that it can be made in a crockpot. That is the only way to cook for me at the moment, unless, of course I can use my rice cooker. Love these modern conveniences, with my old fashioned recipes. Hugs.
