Peanuts: Roasted, salted peanuts were my choice when it came to making these candies. They are easy to find at your local grocery store.

Hello Amanda!
Thanks for this super simple recipe!
I used a mini cookie dough scoop to fill 2 mini muffin pans. The candies are setting up as I write.
Can’t WAIT for breakfast…
Thank you. I plan to make these today. You directions are clear and I like the printed version. I also like the 2 ingredients. So many other recipes use that candy coating.
I love this recipe. Very easy to make! I accidentally bought unsalted nuts and sprinkled kosher salt on top before sticking them in the fridge to firm up. So delicious!
I accidentally picked a bag of Nestle expresso chips. Turned an accidental purchase into an adult peanut cluster! Delish!
I took your advice and used mini marshmallows. Delicious Rocky road clusters. ❣️❣️❣️👏🏻
I tried these with walnuts and dark chocolate. They turned out great. Thanks for the recipe. I want to use caramel the next time. Thank you.
