From TOH Quick Cooking, March/April 2003 issue, credited to Faye O'Brien. These are very yummy for the holidays. I've seen many similar recipes, but this one hits it just right for us. Recipe calls for melting candy coating in the crockpot but I microwave instead.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my candy clusters didn't turn out. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These candy clusters are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

These candy clusters are a great way to use up leftover candy. I had a bunch of Halloween candy that I didn't know what to do with, so I made these clusters and they were a hit!
