Don't know if this quantifies as candy, but it is quick, easy and good.

Melt 12 oz of white chocolate
add handfuls of peanuts, raisins, craisins, and stick pretzels (broken into bite size pieces). Stir and Drop onto parchment paper. I use a small scoop to drop the mixture. Make sure not to add to much to the chocolate so it will stick together!

MartiW, thank you! I added that to the Google document and just called it "Candy Clusters". I hope that is ok. If you have a different name you prefer simply let me know and I'll change it. But thanks again for participating. We're getting so many good recipes and ideas again this year. thumbs_up.gif

Candy Clusters is great. Love the idea of adding peanut butter to it. I made 4 batches yesterday and for some of them I used the dark chocolate. Guess I will have to make some more with the peanut butter!

MartiW, if you're doing it anyway, try some with the white chocolate (or white coating, they both work) and stir in a little peanut butter! That is my FAVE!! Oh boy... guess what I'm going to have to do today? Hahaha!

This is not a candy but a wonderful treat.

I mix a bag of M&M's with cashews a little sweet and salt.
I also have done it with peanuts.

That's like my sister's fave... Candy corn mixed with peanuts. Then just grab a handful and munch. It tastes like a salted nut roll! Or add some milk chocolate chips for a baby ruth type taste!

Seems like it will just melt the Marshmallow pretty fast ?
Maybe I'm not reading the recipe right ?



Sorry I wasn't getting any email updates icon_sad.gif

I just made the Triple Threat again and put a whoopie pie filling in instead of straight marshmallow creme and put it in the fridge between layers.
