Cereal and peanuts add the crunch to these sweet and peanut-buttery treats you can whip up in no time. One batch makes plenty for snacking and sharing. At Christmas, my sister and I add them to trays of homemade candies we give to the customers of the house-cleaning service we run. We're often asked for the recipe.

Yield 60

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pounds white confectionery coating*
1 cup peanut butter
3 cups crisp rice cereal
2 cups dry roasted peanuts
2 cups miniature marshmallows

Steps:

  • Place confectionery coating in a large microwave-safe bowl; microwave at 50% power until melted, about 5 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper or divided between two greased 9-in. square pans.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
  • Make sure the chocolate is finely chopped so that it melts evenly.
  • Don't overmix the chocolate and peanut butter mixture. Overmixing can cause the chocolate to seize and become grainy.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the temperature of the chocolate by placing a small amount on a plate and refrigerating it for 5 minutes. If the chocolate is set and firm, it is ready to use.
  • Spread the chocolate mixture evenly in the prepared pan. Use a spatula to smooth out the top.
  • Sprinkle the peanuts on top of the chocolate mixture immediately. Press them down gently so that they stick.
  • Refrigerate the peanut bark for at least 2 hours before cutting and serving. This will allow the chocolate to set completely.
  • Store the peanut bark in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Crunchy peanut bark is a sweet and salty treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and only requires a few simple ingredients. With its rich chocolate flavor and crunchy peanut topping, peanut bark is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give peanut bark a try. You won't be disappointed!
