CHOCOLATE PEANUT DROPS
This is a recipe that I got from a friend, who got it from her sister, and between the three of us we've handed it out everywhere! The chocolaty candies couldn't be easier to make in the slow cooker and, depending on the size of your spoon, you can get dozens of candies from one batch. So easy and great for gifts.-Anita Bell, Hermitage, Tennessee

Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70% is ideal.
- Make sure the peanut butter is smooth and creamy. If it's too thick, it will be difficult to work with and the drops will be crumbly.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before shaping the drops. This will help them hold their shape better when they're baking.
- Bake the drops at a low temperature for a longer period of time. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Let the drops cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and flavor.

With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these tasty drops that will be enjoyed by people of all ages.
