Easy Crock Pot Chocolate Candy Recipe

So, I was browsing through my mom’s recipe cards and saw this doozy.

Candy in the crock? Intrigued, I was.

I mean, using my crock pot for more than stew or pulled pork? Interesting.

I honestly I don’t remember my mother ever making candy in the slow cooker, but I am sure she had the best of intentions. I mean, have you seen MY pin boards? Good intentions must be genetic.

So I decided to take it to google, the almighty dream-crusher, to see if my mom was an genius recipe inventor. Well. Apparently crock pot candy is a whole thing.

But since it was new to me, I thought it might be new to you too.

Let’s discuss Crock Pot Candy, kay?

How to Make Crock Pot Candies

Honestly, it couldn’t be easier…

Just chop up a few different types of chocolate and throw them in the crock pot.

I started, though, with some chopped hazelnuts on the bottom..just for a little crunch…and also I *think* the nuts might help prevent the chocolate from burning on the bottom…I could be wrong, though.



Next I put in some semi-sweet chips…



Topped those off white candy melts…



Then I let it sit on low for about 3 hours.

I used my 4 quart Crock Pot which is all old-timey looking…



After 3 hours, I stirred it all together…



Here’s where I took matters into my own hands. Since I used hazelnuts, I thought it might be nice to swirl in some Nutella. Why not?





Then I lined a mini muffin tin with cupcake liners and dropped it by heaping tablespoon sized portions into the liners…



Then I added some toffee bits. For good health.



Aren’t they pretty?

And then, since I can’t leave well enough alone I decided to make some more in big cupcake liners. And then maybe also drop an entire Reese’s Cup in there too…



Sometimes it’s important to go there.

And THEN I thought, well, these might be good salted up…so I added a pretzel and some sea salt. Yum!



They set up pretty quickly and then you’ll have fancy candies.

That you made in your least-fancy appliance.
