  • Melt together the two packages of chips in a double boiler over medium-low heat, stirring often. What ever you do- Don't get ANY water in the chocolate mixture or the chocolate with just glob up and won't melt.
  • After it is all melted, stir in the peanuts. More can be added if need be, of course.
  • Drop 3/4"-1" globs of the mixture onto a large sheet of wax paper or into miniature cupcake liners.
  • Cool in the fridge for 30 minutes to an hour, or until firmly set.

  1. Mmmmmm! This was soooo good!! Really easy, too. The chocoholics in this house raved over them. I used the small Pampered Chef scoop to portion them into mini muffin papers, and it made 48 clusters! Thanks, zoegirl21.
     
  2. Turned out great!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have a new found passion for cooking. I live in a house of six people, so lots of guinea pigs to try my culinary masterpieces on. They are actually closer to culinary experiments of questionable edibility, but I am trying to be positive. And I am only fourteen, so I have some time to perfect my skills <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
