Chocolate Peanut Clusters (low carb)


2 lbs extra fancy extra crunchy peanuts 

1 bag of  Lilys extra dark chocolate chips (milk chocolate or dark your preference)

1 tablespoon peanut butter


Prepare two large baking pans by lining them with wax paper. Then set aside.

In a medium microwave safe mixing bowl, add chocolate chips and peanut butter. 

Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval, and scraping down the sides, until chips are melted and mixture is smooth.

Add peanuts. Stir until peanuts are coated with chocolate. *I like it lightly coated that's why I add so much nuts.

Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper lined pans.

Freeze for 30-45 minutes or until completely set.

Serve immediately or store, covered, in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Makes about 42.

*Just a side note before you start- If you buy the Costco can of nuts you might like to put them in a strainer and shake them to get ride of the almost 1/4 cup of extra salt I was able to shake off mine. The chocolate coating sticks better when they aren't covered in so much salt.
