Ingredients

  • 5 cups Fritos corn chips
  • 2 cups Dry roasted peanuts
  • 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup Milk chocolate chips
  • 1 cup Peanut butter chips
  • 1 pound White almond bark

Directions

Step 1

Line a large baking sheet or two smaller baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats. Set aside.

Step 2

Spread the Fritos corn chips evenly across the lined baking sheets or a flat surface. Sprinkle the dry roasted peanuts over the chips, spreading them out evenly. Set aside.

Step 3

In the crock pot, layer the semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and the white almond bark (broken into small pieces) in that order. Do not stir.

Step 4

Set the crock pot to LOW and cook for 90 minutes, allowing the chocolate to melt completely.

Step 5

After 90 minutes, stir the melted chocolate mixture until it is smooth and combined well.

Step 6

Carefully pour or spoon the melted chocolate mixture over the Fritos and peanuts on the baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it evenly, ensuring all chips and nuts are coated.

Step 7

Allow the mixture to cool at room temperature for about 2 hours or place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes to set.

Step 8

Once completely hardened, break the candy into bite-sized pieces.

Step 9

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
