Slow Cooker Candy for Christmas – Just 6 Ingredients
You all know when I saw the words “slow cooker” and “chocolate” all together in the same recipe, there was no way I couldn't try it out. 😉  This is the easiest recipe I think I've ever made, and it makes a ton . . . perfect if you need something simple to make this weekend to share, and a great way to free up your oven!
You can get some ideas for how to gift this candy in the video above – as you can tell, I was a wee bit excited about all the fun packaging supplies I had scored at Hobby Lobby!
While I've found quite a few cute tins, bags, and wraps at Michael's and the Dollar Tree for Christmas baking, the fun ways to gift at Hobby Lobby just made me so happy.
I'd love for you to download your free 12 Days of Christmas Baking Grocery List and Cookbook over HERE. I'm amazed at how much easier it is to get ready for Christmas with a plan in place, and having this list has just made Christmas easier at our house this year.  If you're making any yummy recipes this month, I'd s0 love for you to leave a comment and share what you're making.

I found this recipe online, but changed the original  a bit by topping it with sea salt at the end and using a little less white chocolate, and I'm betting you could make other changes as well. Here's the recipe if you'd like to try it out too!

I was looking for the plain chocolate candy crockpot recipe that uses evaporated milk and cream of coconut milk and cinnamon and coffee. I don’t have all the boxes I think I have three, however you were making it on a YouTube video and then you segued into showing off the new PDF binders and never finished the recipe. I’m not even sure what you called it or how to look it up, I keep finding the one with the peanuts in it, I wanted the plain one with the cinnamon and coffee in it. Help?!

How many does this make approximately?
Laurie says
Hi Teri! It really just depends on how large you make them ~ probably upwards of 40? 🙂
