Ingredients
  

For the clusters
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bars
  • 1 cup salted peanuts for the sweet and salty flavor
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows they mix in easier than big ones
Optional add-ins
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter for a softer texture and a cozy peanut flavor
  • 1 pinch flaky salt to enhance flavor
  • 1/2 cup crushed pretzels for added crunch

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Melt the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in short bursts, stirring each time until smooth and glossy.
  3. Let the chocolate sit for a minute to cool slightly, then stir in the peanuts and mini marshmallows.
  4. Scoop heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared parchment paper.
  5. Allow the clusters to set at room temperature or refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes.

Notes

Store in an airtight container for about 5 to 7 days at room temperature. They can also be refrigerated for a firmer texture or frozen for up to 2 months. Keep away from strong smells to prevent chocolate from absorbing odors.
